This is yet another semi-autobiographical work about a medical man who achieves success and worldy wealth in a non-medical field but remains unsatisfied with his life. It is a rather bitter book , with the protagonist being very self-centred , and it makes reference , as do a number of Cronin's works , to a fixation with suicide. Nonetheless, it is a good and interesting read
