THE NIGHTINGALE GIRLS

Book ID/图书代码: 12751014B75016

English Summary/英文概要: Three very different girls sign up as student nurses in 1936, while England is still mourning the death of George V. Dora is a tough East Ender, driven by ambition, but also desperate to escape her squalid, overcrowded home and her abusive stepfather. Helen is the quiet one, a mystery to her fellow nurses, avoiding fun, gossip and the limelight. In fact she is in the formidable shadow of her overbearing mother, who dominates every aspect of her life. Can a nursing career free Helen at last? The third of our heroines is naughty, rebellious Millie an aristocrat on the run from her conventional upper class life. She is doomed to clash over and over again with terrifying Sister Hyde and to get into scrape after scrape especially where men are concerned.

This utterly delightful novel brings a London pre-war hospital vividly to life.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 1936年,三个截然不同的女孩报名成为了学生护士,而英格兰仍在为乔治•多拉的去世而哀悼,多拉是一个强硬的东安德人,受雄心壮志的驱使,不顾一切地想逃离她肮脏、拥挤的家和虐待她的继父。海伦是一个安静的人,对她的护士同事来说是一个谜,她避免了乐趣、八卦和引人注目。事实上,她的母亲专横跋扈,支配着她生活的方方面面。海伦最终能否从护理工作中解脱出来?我们的第三位女主人公是淘气叛逆的米莉,她是一个逃离传统上流社会生活的贵族。她注定要一次又一次地与可怕的海德姐姐发生冲突,陷入一段又一段的困境,尤其是在男人关心的问题上。

这部令人愉快的小说生动地再现了伦敦战前的一家医院。(WYL)
