A young woman mired in poverty does whatever it takes to ensure her deformed son's survival. Her life intertwines with that of a doctor, and she helps him find (steal) bodies to use as instructional aides for his students. Nobody escapes the tragic consequences of the cholera epidemic, however. Good descriptions of the brutality of life in 1830's London.
