Parenthood, however it may look, is a shared experience worldwide. Yet, the reality of caring for a child is so often romanticised, and ultimately the emotions, stresses, and hardships of the parent are brushed aside. Motherhood in particular is often painted in rosy hues and presented as a gift, never as a sacrifice.
From Japan to Argentina, these books about mothers and motherhood tell a different story, carving a place for the raw realities of the duality of motherhood, with all its loves and losses.
