Rather plodding and ultimately unsatisfactory novel.
The story of a 1060’s couple who have twins, the father delivers them, being a doctor etc. Sadly the girl twin has Downs syndrome and he chooses to get rid of her without telling his wife.
Perhaps it would have a stronger effect on a female reader/mother.
Score 5/10
