ChimborazoAuthorHouse, 22/10/2007 - 288 páginas Chimborazo Hospital in Richmond, Virginia, during the last dark months of the American Civil War. Letha Bartlett is the beleaguered matron of a ward that houses three men whose lives become entwined with hers. Granville Pollard, a Northerner who spurned his Union father to fight for the Confederacy, is a double amputee who is jilted by a fiancee who cannot cope with his wounds. Gradually--and largely thorugh their mutual love of music--Letha and Pollard fall in love. |
