Child of Compassion - Softcover

“They stood staring at Susan’s face in shocked bewilderment and horror. They hadn’t expected this—oh, not this!” Originally published in Redbook magazine (June 1940), CHILD OF COMPASSION is the poignant and moving story of a compassionate young doctor who struggles to find fulfillment after a freak accident horribly disfigures her lovely face. Scottish novelist and physician A. J. Cronin was one of the most popular writers of the twentieth century. With his keen understanding of the human condition, his deep moral conscience and his extraordinary narrative skill, he imbues CHILD OF COMPASSION with all the qualities that have made his many other stories worldwide bestsellers.
