Author Talk: "A Little Unwell" by Kerry Jewell
Children's Area - Wagga Wagga City Library
You are invited to the launch of A Little Unwell, a compelling, candid and darkly funny novel that explores the modern realities of the dysfunctional public health system, and the fragile human beings fighting to make it work.
For Amy, being a doctor was supposed to mean winning at life.
Helping people. Saving lives. Having a secure job. Earning good money. Tick, tick, tick, tick.
But now, in her second year in a city hospital the reality is a world away from Amy's med school dreams. She is finding out that people don't always want to be 'helped', the pay barely covers rent, her hours are ridiculous, her favourite patients are getting sicker, and her surgical trainee boyfriend has recently gone shy on proposing.
