The Best, Most Awful Job by Katherine May

Now in paperback, this bold and brilliant anthology is the perfect Mothers' Day gift for mothers everywhere.

"Poignant, funny, sensitive, but most importantly, heart-stoppingly trueThis is an outstanding collection of essays, from some of the finest writers, which gets right to the dark heart of what it really means to be a mother." - Clover Stroud, author of My Wild and Sleepless Nights; "A wonderful anthology. I enjoyed it so much - the honesty, intelligence, fury and tenderness of the essays; and, importantly and refreshingly, the range of voices and stories it contains." - Liz Berry, author of The Republic of Motherhood; "This is the kind of book that could well make a difference to someone's life ... every mother should read it." - Laura Pearson, author of I Wanted You to Know; 'If I had added a Post-it Note to every sentence in this book that made me laugh, wince in recognition, or faintly well up, I would have turned it into a paper porcupine.' - Ceri Radford, Independent; "All the pain, power and privilege of being a mother is here in these tales of stepparenting; being unable to conceive; having six children; single parenthood; and of how race, class, disability, religion and sexuality affect our perceptions of motherhood" --Caroline Sanderson, The Bookseller Editor's Choice
