Praise for Listen to Your Mother
"With their authentic glimpses into this hard, beautiful thing we call life, the essays between these covers led me to fresh perspectives on mothering and being mothered. I savored the open vulnerability that met me with each turn of the page. From the hilarious to the profound, and not bound by gender or geography, these stories generously plumbed the depths of all that is motherhood." --Anna Whiston Donaldson, New York Times-bestselling author of Rare Bird "I've been a longtime fan of Ann's Listen to Your Mother movement, and I just adore this collection. The stories are diverse, yet bound together by Listen to Your Mother's trademark rawness and honesty. A perfect gift for any woman in your life . . . or yourself!" --Jill Smokler, New York Times-bestselling author of Confessions of a Scary Mommy "Listen to Your Mother manages to do what few anthologies do: it makes us see ourselves clearly through the eyes of many different writers--all gifted and many wickedly funny. These writers voice the things that everyone thinks and no one says. Long live the mothers!" --Suzanne Finnamore, award-winning author of Split
