| Summary |
"Sairaanhoitajan maailmasta" by Sophie Mannerheim is a collection of memoirs written in the early 20th century. The book presents a poignant exploration of life within a hospital setting, focusing on the experiences of the nursing staff and their interactions with patients, particularly children and their hardships during challenging times." The opening of the memoir introduces the author reflecting on her decision to share her memories, emphasizing how the perspective of those living within hospital walls differs from those outside. She describes the impact of war and the emergence of "war babies," whose lives intertwine with the narratives of the ill and the suffering. The narrative begins with a vignette about Leslie, a war baby brought to the hospital, and his encounter with a mysterious young woman claiming to be connected to his deceased mother. This sets the stage for a series of touching and personal stories about the lives of both the patients and their caregivers, highlighting the themes of loss, resilience, and compassion in the face of adversity.
