| Synopsis | Mucha madre is a collective book coordinated and edited by Andrea Fuentes. In it, eleven writers –Gabriela Jauregui, Luisa Fuentes Guaza, Clarisa Moura, Andrea Fuentes, Abril Castro, Violeta Celis, Pilar Villela, Sara Schulz, Ave Barrera, Jazmina Barrera and Gina Jaramillo– and eight illustrators –Amanda Mijangos, Sol Undurraga, Liz Meville, Rachel Levit, Gala Navarro, Sonia Pulido, María Luque and Carmen Segovia– share their ideas, experiences and practices of motherhood to reinvent it. With a language made of words and images, this book is a kaleidoscope that brings together the thoughts and feelings of women with different stories, whose reflections relate their experiences of mothering at different ages and sexual preferences or thanks to fertility treatments; they talk about raising children as single mothers or as stepmothers, they discuss the division of child care within couples, weaning, breastfeeding, and even the refusal to write about being a mother or the decision not to be one. Mucha Madre is a book that relies on diversity; each text shows that there is not just one motherhood, but many motherhoods that, in their multiplicity, call for a collective and urgent conversation in which we all – mothers or not – are part of. |
