Based on dozens of interviews, Beard attempts to understand what works--and does not work--in women's relationships with their ageing mothers. Good Daughters is structured into three sections: Reality Check, a discussion of the changing mother-daughter relationship as women age as well as changes in the culture; Profiles, an in-depth description of mother-daughter pairs; and Loss, an exploration of the grieving process--for both mother and daughter--as death becomes imminent. Good Daughters is sensitively and thoughtfully written and brings a great deal of insight to this difficult topic. Readers struggling with the issue of what it means to be a daughter of an ageing mother might want to augment this fine book with Alix Kates Shulman's brilliant memoir, A Good Enough Daughter. --Ericka Lutz, Amazon.com
