Why read it?
1 author picked Liberating Motherhood as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I like this book because it is well-researched and reveals the politics of mothering. As Vanessa Olorenshaw notes, “mothers’ rights are the flotsam left behind on the ocean surface of patriarchy.” This is a must-read book for all mothers and daughters because the women’s movement has yet to prioritize the rights of mothers to not be the world’s caregivers.
From Rosjke's list on to read about the mother-daughter relationship.
