Intensive Care
by Janet Frame
Intensive Care is one of Janet Frame's most extraordinary novels, both tragic and wildly comical in dimensions of pity and terror that bursts the bounds of conventional fiction. The novel begins within the story of Tom Livingstone, wounded World War I soldier, husband, and father, who falls in love with his nurse and cherishes the dream until many years later fate brings them---and the dream and the reality---together again, and parts them forever.
