Beschreibung
This book presents a chorus of voices on the wonders and terrors of motherhood, and the ways that a creative life can be both ignited and/or disrupted by the pressures of raising children. Featuring thought-provoking essays, interviews and poetry by high-profile writers on their experiences of creating art while also engaged in the compelling, exhausting, exhilarating work of motherhood, this important anthology reconsiders 'the pram in the hallway' as explosively nuanced. Entries include an insightful interview with Pulitzer prize-winning poet Sharon Olds, excerpts from Hollie McNish's motherhood diary, Carol Ann Duffy's beautiful portrait of being and having a daughter, and specially commissioned poems by Sinead Morrissey, Rebecca Goss, and many others. Crime fiction fans will enjoy CL Taylor's witty essay, 'How Motherhood Turned Me to Crime', and Nuala Ellwood's heart-wrenching depiction of miscarriage and loss. By engaging with both the creation of literature by mothers and literary representations of motherhood, the work is a vital exploration of the complexities of contemporary sexual politics, publishing, artistic creation, and 21st-century parenting.
