In 1948, Irene Willard, who’s had five previous miscarriages in a quest to give her beloved husband the child he desperately desires and is now pregnant again, comes to an isolated house-cum-hospital in the Berkshires, run by a husband-and-wife team of doctors who are pioneering a cure for her condition. Warily, she enlists herself in the efforts of the Doctors Hall to “rectify the maternal environment,” both physical and psychological. In the meantime, she also discovers a long-forgotten walled garden on the spacious grounds, a place imbued with its own powers and pulls.

Well written and wonderful narrator. I found myself pulled into the lives of the women and their intense longing for the birth of their babies. Old house, creepy garden and the long game the women were made to play in the hopes of a birth of a child. One of the better books I have listened to. The writing is creative and thoughtful.
