Description
In 1957, twenty-two year old Jenny leaves her home to become a midwife in a deprived nursing convent helping poor pregnant mothers coping with harsh living conditions. A moving, intimate, funny, and true-to-life look at the colorful stories of midwifery and families in East London in the '50s based on the bestselling memoirs of the late Jennifer Worth. When Jenny Lee first arrives in Poplar, she knows nothing about hardship, poverty, and life itself. But Jenny is brought up to speed fast once she joins a team of midwives who provide care to the poorest women.
