Mother of the Child gives a new perspective, an unfolding of the ways in which the normal becomes unique. Vignettes from a mother’s life reveal memories that are light and dark, joyful and sad, wistful and filled with tension, as if prevaricating between setting sail and staying on the shore. Her hopes, her joys and her struggles are what make her completely individual yet completely representative of the human lot.
