Description
Sheila Heti's Motherhood is a deeply personal exploration of one of the most significant decisions of early adulthood: whether or not to have children. The book's narrator grapples with this choice, influenced by her partner, body, family, friends, mysticism, and chance, as she struggles to make a moral and meaningful decision. Through a unique blend of novel and essay, Heti raises radical and essential questions about womanhood, parenthood, and how - and for whom - to live. This thought-provoking work challenges readers to consider the complexities of womanhood and the choices that shape our lives. Published in 2019, Motherhood is a compelling and direct exploration of one of the most consequential decisions of early adulthood.
