Reviewer: Karen R.Book: Heart and Soul
Author: Maeve Binchy
Genre: Fiction
The formation of a new clinic for heart patients brings together a cast of old and new friends from Quentins, Scarlet Feather, and The Night of Rain and Stars. Fiona, returned from Greece and now a nurse, is hired by the clinic which is run by the formidable Dr. Clara Casey. Fiona and young heart clinic doctor Declan Carroll soon fall in love. Their romance affects their friends and clinic co-workers, including the sweet and hard-working Polish immigrant, Aria. Even Dr. Casey has her struggles -- the break-up of her marriage and her longing for a new romance while coping with her two adult daughters.
Heart and Soul features Binchy and Dublim at their most heartwarming and charming. The magic of Maeve Binchy’s books, for me, is their creation of a community with people sharing and helping each other. I always leave her books, reluctantly, with a smile and a renewed faith in humanity. So don’t worry if you haven’t read her previous novels, come right in, meet everyone, and enjoy!
