Book Description

The third and final book in the bestselling Call the Midwife trilogy, now immortalised as a major BBC TV series.

This final instalment of Jennifer Worth's memoirs brings her time as a midwife in 1950s London to a bittersweet and touching conclusion. With her trademark wit and warmth, Worth takes us on a journey through the lives of friends, colleagues and patients in London's East End.

Postwar life could be a struggle - the devastating effects of tuberculosis, dangerous backstreet abortions, people driven to extremes by poverty - yet, despite the desolation, Worth finds humour and community amongst a familiar cast of characters and their exploits, chronicling midwife Chummy's courtship, the eccentricities of Sister Monica Joan and the ever-stern Sister Evangelina.

Farewell to the East End recounts Worth's final years at Nonnatus House, offering a moving glimpse into a bygone era and a poignant conclusion to this beloved series.
