{"product_id":"9781415209882","title":"The Good Doctor","description":"When Laurence Waters arrives at his rural hospital posting, Frank, a fellow doctor there, is instantly suspicious. Laurence is everything Frank is not – young, optimistic and full of new schemes. The two become uneasy friends, while the rest of the staff in the deserted hospital view Laurence with a mixture of awe and mistrust.\nThe town beyond the hospital is also coping with new arrivals, and the return of old faces. The Brigadier – a self-fashioned dictator from apartheid days – is rumoured to still be alive. And down at Mama’s Place, a group of soldiers has moved in with their malign commandant, a man Frank has met before and is keen to avoid. Laurence wants to help – but in a world where the past is demanding restitution from the present, his ill-starred idealism cannot last.\n\nIn gleaming prose Damon Galgut has created a literary thriller out of an unlikely friendship. The Good Doctor is a gripping novelistic high-wire act","brand":"BOOKSITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39430705217651,"sku":"9781415209882","price":285.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2291\/7991\/products\/the-good-doctor-damon-galgut-27954369265779.jpg?v=1638475925","url":"https:\/\/www.readerswarehouse.shop\/products\/9781415209882","provider":"Readers Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
