Historical
The international bestselling author of Into the
Wilderness makes her highly anticipated return with
a remarkable epic about two female doctors in
nineteenth-century New York and the transcendent power of
courage and love…
The year is 1883, and in New
York City, it’s a time of dizzying splendor, crushing
poverty, and tremendous change. With the gravity-defying
Brooklyn Bridge nearly complete and New York in the grips of
anti-vice crusader Anthony Comstock, Anna Savard and her
cousin Sophie—both graduates of the Woman’s Medical
School—treat the city’s most vulnerable, even if doing so
may put everything they’ve strived for in
jeopardy.
Anna's work has placed her in the path
of four children who have lost everything, just as she
herself once had. Faced with their helplessness, Anna must
make an unexpected choice between holding on to the pain of
her past and letting love into her life.
For Sophie,
an obstetrician and the orphaned daughter of free people of
color, helping a desperate young mother forces her to
grapple with the oath she took as a doctor—and thrusts her
and Anna into the orbit of Anthony Comstock, a dangerous man
who considers himself the enemy of everything indecent and
of anyone who dares to defy him.
With its vivid
depictions of old New York and its enormously appealing
characters, The Gilded Hour is a captivating,
emotionally gripping novel that proves Sara Donati is an
author at the height of her powers.
