Inhaltsangabe
In 1951, Tyne Milligan is in her final few months of nurses’ training in Calgary, Alberta. She is looking forward to graduation and her eventual marriage to the man she loves. But because that man is not of her faith, Tyne finds herself in bitter conflict with her staunchly Roman Catholic parents. Then two unrelated events shattered her confidence. One of her two best friends makes a life-changing mistake, and Tyne’s plans for her own future crumble.
Even in the mid-twentieth century, marriage between people of different faiths was frowned upon by adherents of the Protestant and Roman Catholic churches. In the eyes of her staunchly Catholic father, Tyne Milligan has committed the unpardonable sin of falling in love with a man of the Evangelical faith. In Still Waters, Doris Riedweg paints a graphic picture of the struggles and conflicts that result from such an alliance. The author draws upon her nursing experience to bring to life an earlier era in hospital training schools. Her skillful portrayal of the drama played out in the lives of staff, their patients and their families provide a delightful yet thought-provoking read.
