The year of the intern

"Dr. Peters, the patient has stopped breathing!" The nurse's voice on the phone is desperate, but young Dr. Peters, in his first weeks of internship, is bone-tired and a little afraid. He's forgotten when he last slept. Yet he knows that in the coming hours he will have to make life or death decisions, assist contemptuous surgeons, deal with nurses who may know more than he does, and pretend at all times to be what he has not yet become - a fully qualified doctor.
