About the stories and why they matter

Jennifer Worth’s memoirs recount her time as a young midwife attached to the order of nuns at Nonnatus House in the Docklands. These narratives are more than medical anecdotes — they are snapshots of post-war London, portraying the gritty realities of poverty, the dignity of ordinary lives, and the resilience of communities. Readers will meet eccentric nuns, brave mothers, and colourful locals—characters who are at once historically informative and deeply human.

What each book offers

Call The Midwife — A fascinating slice of social history: Worth describes life and births in the 1950s East End with honesty, humour and empathy. This volume introduced readers to the world that later became the acclaimed BBC series.

Shadows Of The Workhouse — Continuing the portrait of East End life, this follow-up reveals stories of workhouse hardship, surprising connections, and the secrets held by local families and even the convent itself.

Farewell To The East End — The third volume brings Worth’s account full circle with more heartbreaking and heartwarming tales: tuberculosis, scandal, compassion and the occasional laugh at human foibles.

Letter to the Midwife — A concluding reflection that ties together the themes of service, memory and the bond between midwives and the communities they served.
