This memoir is one of three in which Worth (Call the Midwife; Farewell to the East End) recounts her experiences as a midwife in London's East End in the 1950s. They were recently adapted for a BBC television series, Call the Midwife (now in its third season). The quality and pacing of the audio is excellent. The narrator, Nicola Barber, is a perfect match for the memoir and vividly recounts the hardships and poverty that Worth encountered during that time. The stories are not all about pregnancy and childbirth but also depict a poor community with a sense of family and caring. VERDICT Excellent for all public libraries.--Michele Lauer-Bader, Half Hollow Hills Community Lib., Dix Hills, NY
