Recipient of Global Media Award 2014 from the Population Institute, Washington, DC (best book category). This book is a call to action, unique because it is sounded by a mother of three with 30+ years' perspective. Holmes challenges all of us to "free" females from the assumption that motherhood is the ultimate expression of womanhood. It is a meaningful path--and there are many more! Women have been redefining the female experience for centuries, but their voices keep vanishing; women such as Kate Chopin, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Tillie Olsen, Madelyn Cain and other mothers who have written about the realities of women's lives and motherhood. Holmes encourages everyone to dispense with outdated scripts that refer to motherhood as a foregone conclusion rather than one path among many that leads to a meaningful happy life.
