‘Our childhood ended when our parents got divorced, and from then on Jennifer found herself in the difficult position of being a mother to me, her sister. I will always be grateful for her protection…’
Tens of thousands have fallen in love with Jennifer Worth and her experiences in the East End, as recorded in Call the Midwife, but little is known about her life outside of this period. In this poignant and captivating memoir, Jennifer’s sister, Christine, takes us from their early idyllic years to the harshness and neglect they suffered after their parents’ separation, from Jennifer being forced to leave home at fourteen to their training as nurses.
After leaving nursing, Jennifer pursued a career in music, her first love, while Christine became a sculptor. Despite marriages and children, joys and sorrows, their lives remained intertwined. Absorbing and emotional, The Midwife's Sister by Christine Lee is a testament to the enduring bond between two extraordinary women.
