Ballantine Books, 1996. Ballantine Books 1996 First Edition NL with 1 Fine/Fine DJ Editorial Reviews From Rose's latest hospital-based drama (after Hospital, 1992) is stocked with enough improbable story lines and characters to fill a month's worth of E.R. episodes. Determined nurse-practitioner Marty Lamb is director of New York City's only nurse-run health facility, a clinic within a major hospital. Dedicated to providing health and maternity care to the city's poorest women, the clinic is continually targeted for closure by the hospital's chauvinistic male physicians. If that weren't enough to make Marty's workdays tension-filled, she has to contend with anti-abortion demonstrators, a nurse who is revealed to be a transsexual, missing drugs, mixed-up blood tests and mysterious gray envelopes that hold the darkest secrets of Marty and her co-workers. Her schizophrenic husband, Owen, safely locked away in a mental hospital since the night he tried to strangle her, has been releasednot good news for her rekindled love affair with the handsome Dr. Paul Giordano. And then there's Marty's young friend Shayna, the 16-year-old daughter of the zealous Rabbi Ezekiel Brown. Shayna was born with spina bifida, a condition that has been carefully hidden from the world by her father. When Shayna's mother is accidentally killed by a right-to-life bullet meant for Giordano, the rabbi blames Marty for her death. With a finale involving the rabbi, Marty, Shayna, an ax and Owen, Rose's yarn, like a patient assaulted by one too many strokes, finally succumbs to a fatal burst of its overplayed melodrama. 1995 Ripe for marketing comparisons to the popular television drama ER, which is set in the emergency room of a Chicago hospital, this novel takes place in a New York City women's clinic located in a large hospital. Marta Daub, a nurse who runs the place, has a schizophrenic husband and an ex-lover who turns up as a doctor in the clinic. The staff nurses include a transsexual, a narcotics addict, and someone who sends poison pen letters. The doctors are randy egotists and the patients include crack addicts and people with AIDS. There are dozens of characters and each has a story to tell; readers who persevere will hear them all. The pace of this novel makes the frenetic ER seem placid and serene. Rose (Like Mother, Like Daughter, LJ 5/15/94) has worked in a hospital. For large popular fiction collections.Barbara Maslekoff, Ohioana Lib., Columbus 1995. First Edition NL with 1. Hardcover.
