The Cape Doctor (Paperback): E.J. Levy The Cape Doctor (Paperback)
E.J. Levy
R453 R415 Discovery Miles 4 150 Save R38 (8%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The story of one man’s journey from penniless Irish girl to one of most celebrated and accomplished figures of his time.

Beginning in Cork, Ireland, the novel recounts Jonathan Mirandus Perry’s journey from daughter to son in order to enter medical school and provide for family, but Perry soon embraced the new-found freedom of living life as a man. From brilliant medical student in Edinburgh and London to eligible bachelor and quick-tempered physician in Cape Town, Dr. Perry thrived. When he befriended the aristocratic Cape Governor, the doctor rose to the pinnacle of society, before the two were publicly accused of a homosexual affair that scandalized the colonies and nearly cost them their lives.

E. J. Levy’s enthralling novel, inspired by the life of Dr. James Miranda Barry, brings this captivating character vividly alive.
