Plot[edit] Wilbur's and Homer's lives are complicated by Wilbur also secretly being an abortionist. Wilbur came to this work reluctantly, but he is driven by having seen the horrors of back-alley operations. Homer, upon learning Wilbur's secret, considers it morally wrong. As a young man, Homer befriends a young couple, Candy Kendall and Wally Worthington, who come to St.
Cloud's for an abortion. Homer leaves the orphanage, and returns with them to Ocean View Orchards (Wally's family's orchard) in Heart's Rock, near the Maine Coast. Subsequently, Wally is found in Burma and returns home, paralyzed from the waist down. Many years later, teenaged Angel falls in love with Rose. A subplot follows the character Melony, who grew up alongside Homer in the orphanage. Background[edit] The story about Wally being shot down over Burma was based in part on that of Irving's biological father (whom he never met), who had been shot down over Burma and survived.[1] References[edit] Free Gift with Purchase: My Improbable Career in Magazines and Makeup (9780307237484): Jean Godfrey-June.
