    want to feel grateful and sick and everything all at once?
  

*by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2012*

I hate it, I love it.... I can't decide! ahhh!  The book is so good, and yet so devastatingly real.  I feel sick after some chapters, I cry....and some I laugh out loud.  I could give it 5 stars or 1!  The chapter on prostitution could have left out a page or two and I wouldn't have minded....don't want those pictures in my head.  The heartbreaking stories of mothers and their children being ripped away from them, leaves me aching.  I guess I know these things have happened, and still do, but I don't neccessarily want to "know" it.  But, at the same time, I couldn't put it down for long.  I thoroughly enjoyed the stories and reading about how people lived not so long ago (1950's london)  I love midwifery and have delivered several babies at home myself, maybe that is why the mother and children being ripped apart stories felt as though they would break me.  I love my kids! I can't imagine enduring what so many people have.  The writing is magnificent, detailed and medically accurate.  I love history....it was so good here with description....vivid.  Be warned....this book is not for the faint of heart.  I rated a 1 simply for the fact that everyone else gives a 4 or 5 and i really would have liked to have seen a different opinion and someone warning me of the intensity of emotion i would feel while reading it.  i am here, looking for anyone else who may have felt the way i am feeling and only see a short line in one or two of the comments.  Maybe I am overly sensitive?Anyways, really it's a 5, but not if you can't enjoy it.  Right now, I am nearly finished and I feel sick.  had to take a break, but I am sure I will return to finish the book.  Just have to gather my thoughts.And, how could anyone stand by and let so many people suffer back then, in that area?  and the workhouses?  REally?  Why? How could that have been ok?makes you grateful for your own life and circumstances for sure, and then makes you wish you could help someone else out in their life.

    Entertaining look at a past where people cared
  

*by G***C on Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2016*

Call the Midwife is a collection of interesting human interest entertaining stories about being a midwife in the poor docklands area of London in the 1950s. The stories are about a time and place no longer with us as midwifes, home births, London docks are things of the past. Container ships and the pill have changed things. SMOG in London is not the same with absence of steam engines and coal fired power stations.The stories touch on the nature of humanity. How humans treat each other is brought to light in an entertaining way – husbands abuse wives physically, nurse and nuns who care. Is it part of the human condition to emphasise as David Hume has suggested or is it part of the condition for the strong to dominate and abuse the weak? We see again how lives can gain meaning by helping others and making a difference.Although the nuns in the stories are clearly of religious faith others (Doctors, Police, Midwives) are not always religious so it is not only religion that drives people to extraordinary action to care for others.The stories are generally very positive and of the “feel good” type although the pain and mess associated with childbirth might tend to put some readers off sex. Personally I had to skip some of the medical details. I enjoyed reading the evocative description of the hospital Christmas procession.Great Books however give the reader something to think deeply about his or her own life and I don’t think it is in that category. It is however an entertaining look at the past with strong themes of love, dignity and empathy.

    Great book!
  

*by J***J on Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2024*

I first watched the series and then read the book.  It is very interesting to learn how midwifery and how life was for women during the 1950s and 1960s in England.  I believe that everyone should read this.  They will very much have a better appreciation of the work of women in healthcare.
