Opis

This text examines the lives of women as they grow from daughters into mothers and move on into the intimidating territory of old age. The book uses pivotal events from the author's own life - her mother's passing, her own dramatic brush with death, her daughter's illness and her 75th birthday - to illuminate the powerful influence the mother-daughter bond has on a woman's identity and the profound changes that come with ageing.
