Item Description


Renowned Island author Ivan Cox, also known as beloved internist Gerry Yukevich, will come to your book group or friend group to discuss his book-Cruise Ship Doctor

 

Gerry is a man of many talents and may even sing or play the piano for you.

Ivan Cox's Cruise Ship Doctor rollicks with the wild capers of Oliver Loring, a Harvard emergency physician and master ballroom dancer, who flees snowy Boston for a one-week gig in the sunny Caribbean on the Valentine TV Cruise of the S/S Nordic Blue.

 Loring rides the tropical waves with kooky passengers and wacky crew members, all while he pursues an elusive Austrian ballerina, the raven-haired and melancholy Ulla von Straff.

An acclaimed classic of nautical wit and adventure, Cruise Ship Doctor offers giggles, surprises, and unforgettable characters, including a mesmerizing Cuban dwarf magician named Tosco, a moody reticulated python named Robespierre, and a waltzing Siberian tiger named Daria.

 With a laugh on every page, Cruise Ship Doctor is the perfect take-along for a cruise anywhere on the high seas. It also serves splendidly as a delightful companion on a winter night by a cozy fire at home. Whatever your pleasure, escape now with Oliver Loring, climb aboard the Nordic Blue, and steady your sea legs for a fast, laugh-packed voyage you will never forget!
