TALE OF MORTAR, MURPHY & SCALPEL
A Surgeon’s Chronicle of Chaos, Concrete, and Becoming
“This was supposed to be simple: build a hospital, save some lives. Then Murphy showed up with a measuring tape.”
In this satirical chronicle of order meeting entropy, an unnamed surgeon sets out to build a hospital — and ends up reconstructing himself. What begins as a straightforward project soon
becomes a labyrinth of missing labourers, architect egos, shifting deadlines, and government approvals that rewrite themselves overnight.
Armed not with a scalpel but spreadsheets, he battles time, ducting, and despair — only to discover that healing takes many forms. Beneath the dust and deadlines lie quiet teachers: the
labourer who never complains, the guard who never leaves his post, the chaos that humbles ambition.
Told with dry humour and disarming honesty, Tale of Mortar, Murphy & Scalpel is both a comedy of errors and a meditation on purpose — a story for anyone who has ever tried to build
something meaningful in a world that resists meaning itself.
