Straight from the bright lecture hall of Moscow University, a young doctor finds himself in a dreary, remote place. Here, in a rural hospital, he, a recent graduate, is about to become a doctor for the first time. This means seeing hundreds of patients a day, performing surgeries he's only read about with a steady hand, and facing snowstorms and the relatives of patients. Every day, the doctor must battle not only smallpox, scarlet fever, and anemia, but also ignorance, poverty, and, most importantly, his own fears and doubts.

And he has no right to lose, because someone's life is always at stake.

And yet, Mikhail Bulgakov's cycle of early stories, many of which are based on real cases from his personal medical practice, is full of hope, gentle humor, and faith in the power of knowledge. And also—love.
