MOTHERHOOD

Darker aspects of motherhood are real, and natural transgressions are not enough spoken about in this way.

Motherhood, by Lisa Marciano, 2022, Paperback

Motherhood stands as a timeless exploration of the poles, very elegantly done. It is concerned with the probing of our own undercurrents. Darker aspects of motherhood are real, and natural transgressions are not enough spoken about in this way. This intriguing book sheds light on a spectrum seldom explored, and stirs away from othering a fascinating experience that we are in fact able to relate to in some measure within ourselves. Any one interested in the feminine will discover precious knowledge in this immensely readable book. Parsed with folktales and a thoughtful narrative, Lisa Marciano describes motherhood in a less fantastical, more worldly, encounter; motherhood as not just overwhelmingly positive.
