Since it was short I read A Diary Without Dates for comparison. Whereas Vera's book is so full of details and careful research, Enid's book is more of a compilation of loosely woven experiences as the title suggests. It's very stream of consciousness. Still an interesting read but I'm glad I read Vera's book first to have a better knowledge of daily hospital life over which Enid's feelings are laid. I do recommend it though.
