Synopsis "Bethnal Green"

For readers of Small Island by Andrea Levy and Brooklyn by Colm Toibin, Bethnal Green vividly brings to life the experiences of women who came from across the world to join the NHS and build their lives in Britain in the 1970s.

1971 Penang. Suyin''s sister returns to the family home, a stricken figure, bearing an opportunity of a lifetime, for Suyin to take her place as a trainee nurse in London''s East End. With excitement and trepidation, Suyin embarks on new adventure, but her sister''s secrets are a constant reminder that she is living a borrowed life, in a strange, tough city. She finds solace in her job and through the gruelling but rewarding work of caring for the sick, Suyin stitches together a new identity.
