Call the Midwife: Farewell to the East End is the last book in Worth's memoir trilogy which the Times Literary Supplement described as "powerful stories with sweet charm and controlled outrage" in the face of dire circumstances. Here at last is the full story of Chummy's delightful courtship and wedding. We also meet Megan'mave identical twins who share a browbeaten husband and return to Sister Monica Joan who is in top eccentric form. As in Worth's first two books Call the Midwife: A Memoir of Birth Joy and Hard Times and Call the Midwife: Shadows of the Workhouse the vividly portrayed denizens of a postwar East End contend with the trials of extreme poverty unsanitary conditions hunger and disease and find surprising ways to thrive in their tightly knit community.
