An unforgettable true story, The Midwife is the basis for the hit PBS drama Call the Midwife
At the age of twenty-two, Jennifer Worth leaves her comfortable home to move into a convent and become a midwife in post war London''s East End slums. The colorful characters she meets while delivering babies all over London-from the plucky, warm-hearted nuns with whom she lives to the woman with twenty-four children who can''t speak English to the prostitutes and dockers of the city''s seedier side-illuminate a fascinating time in history. Beautifully written and utterly moving, The Midwife will touch the hearts of anyone who is, and everyone who has, a mother.
