Homer is an orphan who was never adopted, becoming the favorite of orphanage director Dr. Larch. Dr. Larch imparts his full medical knowledge on Homer, who becomes a skilled, albeit unlicensed, physician. But Homer yearns for a self-chosen life outside the orphanage. What will Homer learn about life and love in the cider house? What of the destiny that Dr. Larch has planned for him?
Within the isolated confines of a Maine orphanage, a mentor teaches an orphan the forbidden art of medicine. This sweeping coming-of-age tale captures the messy, beautiful struggle to define one's own morality against the backdrop of a changing century.
