Narrating Motherhood(s), Breaking the Silence
Author: Silvia Caporale-Bizzini
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9783039107896
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Feminist theory on motherhood has successfully transformed mothers into subjects of their own discourse, recognized the historical, heterogeneous and socially constructed origins of their life experience while, at the same time, widening our understanding of the notion of mothering. This collection combines a literary and a wider cultural perspective from which to look at the topic of the representation of other or forgotten motherhoods. Mothers who have been forced to live exiled and away from their children, women who after trying to conceive, get pregnant but discover they cannot bear to become mothers, or even literary characters based on an autobiographical experience of a sexually abusive mother. The essays critically point out how writing becomes a tool to think and write about the many aspects of motherhood such as an idealized maternal experience versus the real one or the accepted stereotypes of the good mother and the bad mother.

Pages : 270
Book Description
She thinks she can be my salvation. But I’m well beyond redemption… The moment the door opens, I see it in her eyes. Recognition. Horror. Fear. She knows who I am. What I am. And she knows I won’t hesitate to hurt her if she doesn’t obey. What she can’t possibly know is how much I want her. How much I ache to feel her soft skin beneath my fingers, to claim her body in every brutal, violent way only a man like me can imagine. But no matter how beautiful she is, all tied up and helpless, no matter that her pleas for mercy tug at the heart she doesn’t believe I have, giving her even a second of tenderness is a liability. A weakness I can’t afford. Because I’m a wanted man… and I will die before I let them drag me back to that hell they call prison.
