What a difference a day makes! The day in question here is Martin Cunningham’s 23rd birthday, a day which starts much like any other day for the medical students, nurses and doctors at Birmingham’s General Hospital; nurses leaving student’s beds after a drunken night at the mess, ward rounds with the formidable Mr Harrington, patients and staff showing up at the GUI department ...

Set in 1980, Malcolm Frazer’s novel captures the sense of claustrophobic, alcohol-fuelled camaraderie among junior staff in the hospital mess. The hopes, fantasies, dreams and nightmares of a group of young doctors and nurses are carefully dissected through the course of one long and eventful day – Martin Cunningham’s Birthday. None of them will ever be the same again.
