Synopsis
Zachary Walsh, young apprentice to physician John Howard, knows that his master is a man who prides himself on his rationality. But John cannot explain how or why Mary Toft has given birth to a dead rabbit. When this unbelievable incident becomes a regular occurrence, John and Zachary realize that nothing has prepared them to reckon with this marvel of science-or act of God. When King George I learns of Mary's plight, she and her team of doctors are summoned to London, where Zachary is exposed to the city's dark and gruesome corners. All the while, Mary lies in bed as doubts begin to bloom among her caretakers and the ever-present onlookers grow impatient for another birth, another miracle. In this bold novel based on an astonishing true story, the facts are undeniable, yet the truth is just beyond our grasp. Book jacket., In 1726, in the town of Godalming, England, a woman confounded the nation's medical community by giving birth to seventeen rabbits. This astonishing true story is the basis for Dexter Palmer's stunning, powerfully evocative new novel. Surgeon's apprentice Zachary Walsh knows that his master, John Howard, prides himself on his rationality. But John cannot explain how or why Mary Toft, the wife of a local journeyman, has managed to give birth to a dead rabbit. When this singular event becomes a regular occurrence, John and Zachary realize that nothing in their experience as rural physicians has prepared them to deal with a situation like this--strange, troubling, and possibly miraculous. John contacts several of London's finest surgeons, three of whom soon arrive in Godalming to observe, argue, and perhaps use the case to cultivate their own fame. When King George I learns of Mary's plight, she and her doctors are summoned to London, where Zachary experiences a world far removed from his small-town existence and is exposed to some of the darkest corners of the human soul. All the while Mary lies in bed, as doubts begin to blossom among her caretakers and a growing group of onlookers waits with impatience for another birth, another miracle.

- 8***k (3780)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseFar and away the ugliest seller I have encountered in more than 20 years. (eBay tells me it's 21.) Sent a book described as good, but it was underlined IN INK from cover to cover!!! Mistakes can happen, but this seller ignored three emails, and when I submitted photos and asked for a full $21.39 refund for this worthless book, I was offered $4.99. She just wanted to get me irritated all over again. When eBay intervened and saw photos, a full refund was immediate. Avoid her like the plague!
- a***t (794)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseShipping: Shipped the day of the sale; arrived in 5 days in my city, but then the post office sent my package to Colorado. It took another 10 days to get delivered. Packaging: as expected As described: described as NEW. The books do look NEW until you at the page edges which are tanned to almost yellow. Books were probably never read, but they probably sat in sunlight for a long time. Value: Despite yellow-tan page edges, these books were a great value.Lot Of 4 Inspector Maigret Novels (Trade PB) by Georges Simenon - BRAND NEW! (#256759728931)
