Doktore, tak na zdraví! – Taylor Patrick (2014)

Fingal Flahertie O’Reilly, an eccentric, witty, sometimes gruff but always devoted doctor, continues to move and amuse readers with lively stories from the picturesque Irish town of Ballybucklebo. After recently marrying his student sweetheart Kitty, he would prefer to settle into family life, but something is always happening around him: a riding accident, a suspicious heart attack, his housekeeper Kinky’s romantic infatuation, the locals’ prejudice against the young doctor Jenny, and even fraudulent dealings at the greyhound races. Doctor Fingal must tackle his patients’ troubles just as he did thirty years ago, when he began working at a clinic for the underprivileged in Dublin. His dedication and youthful enthusiasm win him the respect of the townspeople, although some of them then expect too much from him. His medical profession initially absorbs him so completely that it causes him to part from the great love of his life, Kitty. Taylor’s vivid portrayal of the extraordinary lives of the town’s distinctive characters makes readers feel as though they are sitting in the Grimy Duck pub, raising a glass of the locals’ favourite Guinness.
