When the CALL THE MIDWIFE books became bestsellers, Jennifer Worth
was inundated with correspondence. People felt moved to write to
her because the books had touched them, and because they wanted to
share memories of the world her books described, the East End of
London in the late 1940s and early 1950s. LETTERS TO THE MIDWIFE is
a collection of the correspondence she received offering a
fascinating glimpse into a long-lost world. Along with readers'
responses and personal histories, it is filled with heartwarming
gems such as letters and drawings sent by one of the nuns featured
in Call the Midwife and a curious list of the things Jennifer would
need to become a missionary. There are stories from other midwives,
lorry drivers, even a seamstress, all with tales to tell.
Containing previously unpublished material describing her time
spent in Paris, and some journal entries, this is also a portrait
of Jennifer herself, complete with a moving introduction by her
family about the Jennifer Worth they knew and loved.
