Across a Broken Shore

Autor Amy Trueblood
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 noi 2019 – vârsta până la 18 ani
The last thing eighteen-year-old Wilhelmina “Willa” MacCarthy wants is to be a nun. It’s 1936, and as the only daughter amongst four sons, her Irish–Catholic family is counting on her to take her vows—but Willa’s found another calling. Each day she sneaks away to help Doctor Katherine Winston in her medical clinic in San Francisco’s Richmond District. Keeping secrets from her family only becomes more complicated when Willa agrees to help the doctor at a field hospital near the new bridge being built over the Golden Gate. Willa thinks she can handle her new chaotic life, but as she draws closer to a dashing young ironworker and risks grow at the bridge, she discovers that hiding from what she truly wants may be her biggest lie of all.

Recenzii

"Trueblood expertly portrays life in Depression-era San Francisco through the eyes of a young woman." —School Library Journal
"The history of the bridge, women in medicine, and family life will have great appeal." —Booklist
“The author weaves a beautiful story of a nation struggling to care for its citizens, wanderers looking for a place to call home, young women finding new ways to gain independence, and the importance of love and family in seeing one through life's struggles. Highly recommended.”—School Library Connection
