Sklif is neither an institute nor a hospital. It is a special world. Doctor Danilov was lucky enough to get a job in a place called both the “Health Forge,” the “Factory of Death,” and the “Main Dump of the Ministry of Health.”
Do you know how many methods of suicide there are and what doctors do with would-be suicides? Which is worse — poisoning yourself with expensive heroin or cheap ammonia? Heroes and scoundrels, cynics and saints…
Some say that Sklif is something between a slaughterhouse and a church.
How long Danilov could hold out at the main emergency care institute, he did not know, especially after one terrible incident.
