Motherhood – it encompasses every genre, from comedy to tragedy, courtroom drama to disaster movie. It is a blessing, a curse, and countless other contradictions all wrapped up in one life-changing journey. Every woman has been a child, but does that prepare them to become a mother? How do the myths of motherhood shape the experience of being a mother? Is a woman truly free to make her own decisions, when her body is a home for another? The Book of Mothers poses these questions through the eyes of Louise, whose complicated relationship with her mother leaves her ambivalent about her own pregnancy and impending motherhood.
