Om Homer Wells' opvækst på et hjem for forældreløse børn, der også er en fødsels- og abortklinik. Med grotesk humor skildres hans krogede livsbane og menneskene omkring ham.
GoST: Both books relate the eventful, coming-of-age stories of physicians and their struggle to learn their craft, complete with detailed descriptions of medical procedures.

To Nurse Edna, who was in love, and to Nurse Angela, who wasn't (but who had in her wisdom named both Homer Wells and Fuzzy Stone), there was no fault to be found in the hearts of either Dr Stone or Dr Larch, who were--if there ever were--Princes of Maine, Kings of New England.
