Synopsis Hope Edelman continues the work that she started in her groundbreaking and popular book MOTHERLESS DAUGHTERS, which opened up an important and widely shared area of experience and established ways of talking about the lifelong effects on women whose mothers died or otherwise were not in their lives as they were growing up.
Here, Edelman addresses the issues of parenting, or mothering, as she discusses her years as a mother, and the struggle to do it well without a guiding script, and without the support and presence from which those with mothers still in their lives benefit. She offers practical advice and support, and, through anecdotes from the many others in her situation, all from varied backgrounds and experiences, she highlights the strikingly shared challenges, such as the absence of a grandmother in their child’s life.
