Exploring the complexities of motherhood, this book critiques traditional representations that often reduce maternal experiences to binary classifications of good and bad mothers. It highlights a growing body of visual and literary works that embrace the nuanced concept of maternal ambivalence, where feelings of love and resentment coexist. By addressing the lack of theoretical exploration in contemporary narratives, the book seeks to illuminate the diverse and embodied experiences of mothers, challenging societal norms surrounding femininity and maternity.
