Editors Camille Peri and Kate Moses have created a chorus with range: This is not a stream of white, privileged voices interrupted only occasionally by news from the underclass, news from women of colour, news from sexual minorities. If anything, the book is too focused on a wide variety of very personal stories--one often wishes for the gesture of expansion, the linking of the personal to the cultural. Still, that's a small gripe with a book that takes us into the brainier, funnier kitchens of motherhood all over America. --Amazon.com

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From the editors of Salon.com's cutting edge Web site, "Mothers Who Think," comes "an anthology of smart and lovely essays" (Chicago Sun Times) -- provacative collection that challenges and changes our views of motherhood today. Anne Lamott, Jayne Anne Phillips, Sallie Tisdale, Susan Straight, Jane Lazarre, Nora Okja Keller, Beth Kephart, Ariel Gore, Alex Witchel, and many other contemporary writers elevate the discussion of motherhood above the level of tantrum control and potty training. Irreverent, wistful, hilarious, fierce, and tender, these essays offer an unsparing look at the myths and realities, the serious and silly sides, the thankless and supremely satisfying aspects of being a mom -- and are a testament to the notion that motherhood gives women more to think about, not less. A company of contemporary writers and new talents elevate the discussion of motherhood above the level of tantrum control and potty training. These irreverent, hilarious, tender, and provocative pieces are a testament to the notion that motherhood gives women more to think about, not less. This item is printed on demand.
