Madelene D. (Madelene) - reviewed on 1/1/2010 + 19 more book reviews

This book just the way it was made was interesting the pages and the book slip are made in such a way as it appears to be very old even though it was brand new when I got it. It's about this lady who is pretty much a girl that is hired out into a household which isn't unusual in those days. All the money she ears goes to her family to support them her father was the one to loan her out. In this book you will see how doctoring was done in those times and how experiments were dolled out in search of answers to illness. You will be shocked by them. To not give to much of the story away I cannot indulge further but it was a good and fast read with no plodding along. I found it very interesting in parts and grotesque in others.
