SALMONBERRY WINE Mary Razzell. Vancouver, BC: Douglas & McIntyre, 1987. 192pp., paper, $6.95. ISBN 0-88899-062-6. A Groundwood Book. CIP. Subject Heading: Nurses And Nursing-Fiction. Grades 9-12 / Ages 14-17 Reviewed by Lillian Turner. Volume 15 Number 5 1987 September This sequel to Razzell's acclaimed first novel SnowApples ¹ takes Sheila Brary, now a seventeen-year-old, to nursing school in a Vancouver hospital. There she encounters a rigid and strict discipline, curfews, and line-ups for everything from a medical examination to uniform fittings and meals. While bitterly resentful at first, she gradually comes to understand why adherence to the rules is necessary for the good of all. Teen-age readers will empathize with her homesickness and longing for her former friends, including her boyfriend Lars. However, a trip home leaves her dissatisfied and she is happy to return to the strictness of her nurse-in-training routines and especially a very ill, but undiagnosed, young female patient for whom she has developed a special sense of responsibility. Salmonberry Wine is highly recommended for young adult readers from age fifteen up. It promotes the moral value of responsibility to a cause, the question of medical ethics, and of course the romantic interest with a young intern which helps to carry the story along.
