Maternal Desire Summary

Maternal Desire: On Children, Love, and the Inner Life by Daphne de Marneffe

As revolutionary as The Second Sex and as controversial as Backlash, this book will transform readers' thinking about the place of child rearing in women's lives. Immediately acclaimed by readers ranging from Allison Pearson to Carol Gilligan, from Daphne Merkin to Mary Matalin.

Maternal Desire Reviews

"Daphne de Marneffe nudges us gently but persuasively away from the competing cliches of mothering as either sacred duty or time-juggler's burden, and makes us think about why women want to take care of children in the first place. Maternal Desire is a pleasure to read and to think about.... The most original and stimulating book on motherhood to come along in a very long while."
