SOC SCI<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For all our supposed advancement since previous generations, the societal duress implicit in our concept of the &#8220;good mother&#8221; seems to linger. In perhaps no other. tension between the self-sacrifice of motherhood and the need for self-actualization felt more strongly than in artistic and literary pursuits. This theme-along with that of the practical obstacles and unexpected inspirations of creating while tending to one child or more-is repeatedly but not repetitiously examined in this collection of essays, practical guides, poetry and illustrations edited by writer-mamas Lavender and Rossini. The pieces are as varied as the nature of the art created by their authors, including dancers, artists, photographers, writers, singers, and &#8216;zine creators. Still, a sense of honesty, passion and, yes, intense motherly love is apparent throughout. Highly recommended for both family\/relationship and arts and literature collections.&#8221;                   -Kay Hogan Smith, UAB Lister Hill Lib., Birmingham, AL<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/monicabock.com\/homesick\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/BockMamaPhonicPagesFinal.pdf\">&#8220;Don&#8217;t Forget the Lunches&#8230;&#8221; by Monica Bock &amp; Zofia Burr<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mamaphonic: Balancing Motherhood and Other Creative Acts, ed. by Bee Lavender &amp; Maia Rossini.
