Plot Summary of A Plague On Both Your Houses - Chronicles of Matthew Bartholomew 1
"In 1348 the first Black Death ravaged England and in the university city of Cambridge citizens waited for the unstoppable plague. The teacher of medicine at Michaelhouse, Doctor Matthew Bartholomew, is struggling with his advanced ideas of treatment against his more traditional collegues. When the Master of Michaelhouse inexplicably dies, Doctor Bartholomew starts asking questions the University authorities would rather go unanswered. Then bubonic plague hits the city. Susanna Gregory evokes the dingy, fetid feel of the period when social life and ignorance aided the spread of a virulent disease. "
Alan J. Bishop, Resident Scholar
