The Birth House is the story of Dora Rare, the first daughter to be born in five generations of Rares. As a child in an isolated village in Nova Scotia, she is drawn to Miss Babineau, an outspoken Acadian midwife with a gift for healing. Dora becomes Miss B.’s apprentice, and together they help the women of Scots Bay through infertility, difficult labours, breech births, unwanted pregnancies and even unfulfilling sex lives. Filled with details as compelling as they are surprising, The Birth House is an unforgettable tale of the struggles women have faced to have control of their own bodies and to keep the best parts of tradition alive in the world of modern medicine.

I’d read this book 15+ years ago and rated it 5 stars. It’s a rare occasion when I like a book written a while ago just as much today as I did back then!

Fascinating tale of a remote east coast village!

Some of the reviews discouraged me, and I almost passed on it. So glad I did not.

Having recently visited Nova Scotia, I was specifically looking for a novel in that setting, and this one perfectly captured the magic of the place as well as the humor and homespun nature of the people.

I also thought the book did a great job capturing the attitudes about women of the time and a slice of the history of midwifery.

It also touches on the ship-building of the day. A crucial industry in the maritime for decades.

The reader was exceptional.

Highly enjoyable!
