Title: The Judas tree
Description: This is yet another semi-autobiographical work  about a medical man who achieves success and worldy wealth  in a non-medical field but remains unsatisfied with his life.  It is   a rather bitter book , with the protagonist  being very self-centred , and it makes reference , as do a number of Cronin's works , to a fixation with suicide. Nonetheless, it is a good and interesting read
