A classic saga of love and choice from the brilliant John Irving, author of such worldwide bestsellers as "The World According to Garp" and "The Hotel New Hampshire", "The Cider House Rules" and "A Son of the Circus", "A Prayer for Owen Meany" and "Until I Find You".
So, a young doctor arrives in a provincial town to work at an orphanage. He helps women deliver these orphans, he raises the children they have abandoned… This is a book about the fact that everyone dreams of a family, especially an orphan. This is a book about the simple rules of life that people must adhere to if they want to remain human, about the obligations that real people take upon themselves and fulfill, and about a calling that, like it or not, everyone has in life, but not everyone finds.
