The book Call midwives is the memories of Jennifer Wharf about her life and work in London in the 1950s. Jenny Lee"s young girl, surprised himself, is arranged with an obstetric in the community of St. Rammond Nonnata in East End. Dirty streets with traces of recent war, noisy docks, overcrowded multi-apartment, crime and extreme poverty - In the middle of the 20th century, this area could not be called prosperous. The nurses and nuns of the community were then the only ones who have carefully cared for women from poor working families. Working midwives, the author of the day after day watched the difficult life of these people, began to witness their tragedies and joys and was convinced of the incredible strength of their characters.
On the outcome of life, Jennifer Wharf wrote a striking book about the time, about the nuns and ordinary East Endzha, the first in the literature about the child"s dedicated work of midwives.
It is not surprising that the book Call an obstetrician "has become a certain bestseller - at the moment only in the UK has been sold more than a million copies.
In 2012, the book was shielded by BBC. The series Call midwives collected more than ten million spectators from the screens and became the most successful dramatic series on the BBC One TV channel since 2001
