Description
'Veronica Greene is the sister in Coronation Ward at St. Charles' Hospital. Her slim figure and honey-blonde hair attracted many admirers, but she and Bill Canton, a house surgeon, had been in love for a long time. The trouble was that Bill kept dismissing the idea of a formal engagement on the grounds that it could not help his career. Then Veronica noticed that he was seeing Josephine Deerborne more and more often.Everyday hospital routine, the problems of both patients and staff, jealousy, boredom, ambition - these make up the background of this moving story. At the end there is a hint of ultimate happiness for Veronica Greene, but not before she has experienced the heart-break and tragedy that life in St. Charles' seemed bound to provoke - her interests always conflicted, and it was she rather than men who suffered.With 'Sister Veronica Greene', Norah C. James has written another fine novel, of the quality that has established her reputation as a leading writer.'
