I listened to The midwife’s revolt as an audible book. I think this added to the experience as the narrator Julia Whelan has a gorgeous voice which seemed well matched to the style of writing. Daynard has written with the turn of phrase that would have been used when this story is set: during the American Revolution. I found this an engrossing tale. My knowledge of the Revolution is sketchy so I was interested in learning more. I love strong female characters, and this tale is full of them. Their comaradarie, courage, wisdom (and wit) made them very attractive and engaging. I’d love to have them all as close female friends. I highly recommend this well researched and enthralling novel.
