<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The pathbreaking investigation into motherhood and womanhood from an influential and enduring feminist voice, now for a new generation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In <em>Of Woman Born</em>, originally published in 1976, influential poet and feminist Adrienne Rich examines the patriarchic systems and political institutions that define motherhood. Exploring her own experience--as a woman, a poet, a feminist, and a mother--she finds the act of mothering to be both determined by and distinct from the institution of motherhood as it is imposed on all women everywhere. A "powerful blend of research, theory, and self-reflection" (Sandra M. Gilbert, <em>Paris Review</em>), <em>Of Woman Born</em> revolutionized how women thought about motherhood and their own liberation. With a stirring new foreword from National Book Critics Circle Award-winning writer Eula Biss, the book resounds with as much wisdom and insight today as when it was first written.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>'In order for all women to have real choices all along the line, ' Ardrienne Rich writes, 'we need fully to understand the power and powerlessness embodied in motherhood in patriarchal culture.'
