{"product_id":"the-pain-mothers-must-never-michelann-parr-9781772585025","title":"The Pain Mothers Must Never Expose:: Confronting the Silences of Maternal Life","description":"In this collection, contributors reject the narrative that suggests that the pain of mothers must never be exposed. They allow their pain to wander outside the frame of the requisite pathos; individual pieces reveal pain to be a complex and intersectional practice that encompasses denial and disenfranchisement where pain is birthed and named; disorientation leading to a search for stable ground; destabilization that inspires non-normative mothering; and discovery as an active stance that transforms intergenerational pain. As contributors take up the challenge of unravelling their stories, they reach for a life-sustaining and hopeful shift in consciousness that allows them to listen to what pain has to offer without judgment; to imagine and create a different future for themselves, their children, and the world; and to let go of maternal pain and suffering as a way of being. Readers will be inspired by raw honesty, authenticity, and willingness to embrace story as a gift to self.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michelann Parr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1772585025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781772585025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Demeter Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/25\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.02lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Michelann Parr","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46739136413951,"sku":"9781772585025","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f91729cc-382a-4c7c-b170-e8e8ee6368b4.jpg?v=1743277323","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-pain-mothers-must-never-michelann-parr-9781772585025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
