Inside every hospital exists a world no outsider has been allowed to see, not even the idealistic young man who has come to start a career in medicine. What awaits him is a life of institutionalised cynicism, pitch-black humour and visceral sex, and soon it changes him more terribly than he could ever have feared. Written by a former doctor, Bodies is a novel of almost unbearable power and intensity. It is also a moving portrait of the loss of innocence, the healing power of sexual love, and of a young man's quest for redemption in a world that's lost its sense of right and wrong. In Bodies, Jed Mercurio, the man behind the television series Cardiac Arrest, has produced an even more disturbingly authentic despatch from the frontline of hospital life.

Un adúltero americano describe y disecciona desde la primera línea, con una prosa hipnótica, las estrategias, los objetivos y la psicología de un mujeriego compulsivo. Como todo donjuán, debe ser cuidadoso en la eleccion de sus amantes, y calcular muy bien el proceso de seduccion; y tambien tiene que moverse con pies de plomo y ser muy habil para ocultar su doble, o multiple, vida ante su esposa, sus rivales politicos y la opinion publica. Y no estamos hablando de un hombre comun y corriente. El sujeto de esta investigacion, de esta novela de escasa ficcion y esplendidos hallazgos, es el mitico John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Jed Mercurio que ademas de brillante escritor es medico se inspira en la escabrosa vida sexual de Kennedy, y tambien en su complicado historial medico, y la principal e inteligente premisa de esta provocativa novela es que el deseo y la energia que impulsaban al presidente de cama en cama, y sus enfermedades -las reales y las manipuladas o manufacturadas por los medicos, eran el fundamento de su personalidad politica.
