Description
The Hospital Ship is a seminal novel by Martin Bax, first published in 1976. Now back in print after three decades, this cult classic tells the story of a hospital ship that picks up casualties from harbours around the world.
As it sails on, the ship struggles to save itself from its own lunacy, carrying victims of a worldwide disaster - a holocaust that spreads with each new arrival. The hospital ship's mission is to provide emergency care, but at what cost?
This thought-provoking novel explores the human condition in the face of catastrophic collapse, raising questions about survival, sanity, and the true meaning of humanity.
