Description
Jacqueline Rose's Mothers is a thought-provoking exploration of the complex and often contradictory nature of motherhood. Drawing on a wide range of cultural references and historical observations, the book examines how motherhood is frequently the target of intense ambivalence, idealization and hatred. A short and provocative work, Mothers offers a compelling analysis of how motherhood is often scapegoated for societal problems.
