These are fictional narratives of doctors, nurses, cooks and cleaners who work at the heart of clinical medicine. They keep a struggling institution going, while navigating the highs and lows of their own supposedly ordinary lives. The hospital that connects these women is in a remote city, in a beautiful land, but it could be anywhere, everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese linked stories are much more than descriptions of women at work. They are intimate confessions of mothers, daughters, friends, lovers, and the connections that shape their lives. Each unveils the ever-present, ever-changing balance between professional and private worlds. We plan\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eand predict, yet sometimes we stumble and fall. Our careful - or haphazard - strategies are disrupted by falling in love; by our links to others; by the birth of our children; by our deepest or most impulsive feelings; by love and loss and grief, and of course ultimately by death.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAdmissions\u003c\/em\u003e is calm, seductive and deceptive: things pop out to disturb when least expected from such everyday\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003evoices.
