by SusanC.Greenfield (Author)
The rise of the novel and of the ideal nuclear family was no coincidence, the author argues in this look at the construction of modern maternity. She offers a cultural context in which to read various works of early women novelists, while placing the concept of motherhood in a historical framework.
