Description
As he works his way through his medical training, Ike Anya’s grandmother reassures him: Everything worthwhile is achieved small by small. Ike’s story charts the triumphs and failures of his student days through to his first demanding year as a house officer. A medical memoir unlike any from the West, this is filled with the colour and vibrancy of tempestuous 1990s Nigeria, where political unrest, social change and a worsening economy make a doctor’s life particularly challenging. Full of compassion and insight, often humorous and always moving, this is a unique doctor’s journey. “A small miracle of a book.” - Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie “Marvellously rich… a generous, thoughtful and necessary book.” Jowhor Ile
