A Young Doctor's Notebook

A radio play based on the stories from the book of the same name.
A Young Doctor's Notebook is a unique collection of stories by Mikhail Bulgakov that reveals an important but not widely known side of the author’s life—that of a young doctor.
The stories are largely based on Bulgakov’s experience working as a doctor in a rural hospital, where the future writer, performing extremely difficult operations, tried to comprehend his purpose in life.
The plots of the stories included in the cycle A Young Doctor's Notebook are simple, but they reveal both the author’s character and provide a panorama of life in a backwater settlement somewhere in the Smolensk province.
