I was so glad to get to talk to GP Amy Fulton about Prophet Song by Paul Lynch. This is an astonishingly good dystopian fiction novel, which I thoroughly thoroughly enjoyed. It's unusual to find a novel that really has you gripped, sucked into another world imagining something unimaginable and then brought back to earth again and again and again when you realise that this is fiction and of course this is not happening in Ireland where this book is set but that there is a lot more reality in what Paul Lynch is writing about than we want there to be.
Prophet Song is an incredibly, incredibly good book, which has really made me think so much. And it was a real joy to talk to Amy about it and think about some of the themes in there that can really make a difference to us as healthcare professionals.
