Synopsis
page removed. Slight shelf wear to bottom edge of cloth. Slight wear and tear to D/J. Laurence Carroll, which childhood A Song of Sixpence so brilliantly described, is now in the early years of his career as a doctor. Lazy, opportunist, yet with a redeeming sense of humour, he obtains the perfect sinecure as medical director of a clinic for sick children in Switzerland.
