Produced by Don Lainson; David Widger "Hilda Wade, a Woman with Tenacity of Purpose" by Grant Allen is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story revolves around the titular character, Hilda Wade, a nurse who is passionately dedicated to her profession and drawn to the revolutionary Professor Sebastian, showcasing themes of ambition, scientific endeavor, and the complexities of human relationships in a medical context. The opening of the novel introduces Hilda Wade and her unique capabilities, particularly her intuitive understanding of patients, which complements the analytical approach of Professor Sebastian, a leading physiologist. As Hilda takes a position at St. Nathaniel's Hospital to be close to Sebastian, it becomes apparent that her motivations may extend beyond mere nursing. The narrative hints at a deeper purpose driving Hilda’s actions, with an interesting dynamic developing between her and the Professor, who is absorbed in his scientific pursuits. The introduction sets the stage for a blend of medical exploration and personal intrigue, as well as challenges the reader to consider the intersection of science and human emotion in the pursuit of knowledge.
