‘Brutally powerful . . . Totally absorbing’ Independent
‘A gripping, honest and moving account of healthcare work in a war zone’ Henry Marsh, author of Do No Harm
At twenty-six years old, Anna Kent helped a woman deliver her baby in a tropical storm by the light of a headtorch. At age thirty she would be responsible for the female health of 30,000 Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. But returning to work for the NHS in the UK, she soon learned that even at home the right to a safe birth was impossible to take for granted.
Frontline Midwife is Kent’s compassionate testament to the critical work of healthcare professionals around the world.
‘An extraordinary, profoundly moving, all-consuming memoir’ Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks
‘The heart-wrenching tale of one midwife’s quest to help others – and make peace with herself’ Leah Hazard, author of Hard Pushed©2022 Julia Gregson (P)2022 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Recensioni della critica
Searingly honest . . . This brutally powerful memoir is full of incidents and suffering that will stay in your head . . . Although it’s a stark read, Frontline Midwife is totally absorbing because Kent holds nothing back, including about her own tragic experiences of miscarriage and loss. The book offers a window into a world that few of us could honestly face’
Few can lay claim to a career as eventful as that of Anna Kent, a midwife who spent years delivering babies in war zones and refugee camps across the world. Her poignant memoir is a deeply thought-provoking red, at once devastating and brimming with hope
Extraordinary . . . A sensationally powerful account of humanitarian aid work, the amazing people working in the field and attending patients, and the life-giving work of the medical profession both at home and overseas. A book that will stay with you
An extraordinary, profoundly moving, all-consuming memoir that transports the reader deep into its world of heat, heartbreak, agonising moral dilemmas, and joy eked out against the backdrop of crisis. I haven't stopped thinking about Frontline Midwife since I finished reading it (Oliver Burkeman, author of FOUR THOUSAND WEEKS)
The heart-wrenching tale of one midwife’s quest to help others –and make peace with herself – in some of the world’s most challenging environments (Leah Hazard, author of HARD PUSHED)
In this stunning, gripping true story, Anna Kent confronts unimaginable hardships to do good in the world . . . I was riveted and fascinated by her bravery, her journey and her spirit (Delia Ephron)
