In our mothers' day there were good mothers, neglectful mothers, and occasionally great mothers.Today we have only Bad Mothers.If you work, you're neglectful; if you stay home, you're smothering. If you discipline, you're buying them a spot on the shrink's couch; if you let them run wild, they will be into drugs by seventh grade. If you buy organic, you're spending their college fund; if you don't, you're risking all sorts of allergies and illnesses.Is it any wonder so many women refer to themselves at one time or another as \"a bad mother\"? Ayelet Waldman says it's time for women to get over it and get on with it, in a book that is sure to spark the same level of controversy as her now legendary \"Modern Love\" piece, in which she confessed to loving her husband more than her children.Covering topics as diverse as the hysteria of competitive parenting (Whose toddler can recite the planets in order from the sun?), the relentless pursuits of the Bad Mother police, balancing the work-family dynamic, and the bane of every mother's existence (homework, that is), Bad Mother illuminates the anxieties that riddle motherhood today, while providing women with the encouragement they need to give themselves a break.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx294e7p57mf2qqewbpdyx8v.jpg?v=d25f3af4c2","LBNd%gxG77WZY8tRxtt61SWBrpj]",2009,213,[470],{"id":471,"slug":472,"name":473},"01kph46ag4wr9n2masb0c0rh7h","ayelet-waldman-d8ha","Ayelet Waldman",[475,476,477],{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":20},{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":155,"complexity":10,"audience":157,"mood":480,"themes":481,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[159,213],[],{"id":483,"slug":484,"title":485,"description":486,"primary_cover_url":487,"cover_blurhash":488,"first_publish_year":489,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":18,"page_count":17,"authors":490,"genres":495,"series":499,"enrichment":500},"01kx2ezfad0feqns54rgfbq9m2","aftershocks-3a5e","Aftershocks","In the tradition of The Glass Castle, this “gorgeous” (The New York Times, Editors’ Choice) and deeply felt memoir from Whiting Award winner Nadia Owusu tells the “incredible story” (Malala Yousafzai) about the push and pull of belonging, the seismic emotional toll of family secrets, and the heart it takes to pull through. “In Aftershocks, Nadia Owusu tells the incredible story of her young life. How does a girl—abandoned by her mother at age two and orphaned at thirteen when her beloved father dies—find her place in the world? This memoir is the story of Nadia creating her own solid ground across countries and continents. I know the struggle of rebuilding your life in an unfamiliar place. While some of you might be familiar with that and some might not, I hope you’ll take as much inspiration and hope from her story as I did.” —MALALA YOUSAFZAI ​ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF 2021 SELECTED BY VULTURE, TIME, ESQUIRE, NPR, AND VOGUE! Young Nadia Owusu followed her father, a United Nations official, from Europe to Africa and back again. Just as she and her family settled into a new home, her father would tell them it was time to say their goodbyes. The instability wrought by Nadia’s nomadic childhood was deepened by family secrets and fractures, both lived and inherited. Her Armenian American mother, who abandoned Nadia when she was two, would periodically reappear, only to vanish again. Her father, a Ghanaian, the great hero of her life, died when she was thirteen. After his passing, Nadia’s stepmother weighed her down with a revelation that was either a bombshell secret or a lie, rife with shaming innuendo. With these and other ruptures, Nadia arrived in New York as a young woman feeling stateless, motherless, and uncertain about her future, yet eager to find her own identity. What followed, however, were periods of depression in which she struggled to hold herself and her siblings together. “A magnificent, complex assessment of selfhood and why it matters” (Elle), Aftershocks depicts the way she hauled herself from the wreckage of her life’s perpetual quaking, the means by which she has finally come to understand that the only ground firm enough to count on is the one written into existence by her own hand. “Full of narrative risk and untrammeled lyricism” (The Washington Post), Aftershocks joins the likes of Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight and William Styron’s Darkness Visible, and does for race identity what Maggie Nelson does for gender identity in The Argonauts.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2ezfaspm4khb55e9hdag3g.jpg?v=abd45b6424","LZM3Tb=Y}qW,:+O=,pt7BoIpwgV[",2021,[491],{"id":492,"slug":493,"name":494},"01kx2ezfanvz9stpf6aa86geg2","nadia-owusu-iafq","Nadia Owusu",[496,497,498],{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},{"id":48,"name":49,"slug":50,"is_fiction":20},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":210,"complexity":10,"audience":157,"mood":501,"themes":502,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[252,213,212],[],[504,662,785],{"key":505,"params":506,"works":507},"genre_year",{"genre":33,"year":9},[508,531,566,588,614,638],{"id":509,"slug":510,"title":511,"description":10,"primary_cover_url":512,"cover_blurhash":513,"first_publish_year":514,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":18,"page_count":515,"authors":516,"genres":521,"series":527,"enrichment":528},"01kx2nn9xn018a8myr4kb4ph4t","the-witches-are-coming-gal0","The Witches Are Coming","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2nn9xypn5em5rm68ney5bv.jpg?v=2b3df40e56","L37^G3j=06ahl#n%MiSg59Se%0xX",2019,266,[517],{"id":518,"slug":519,"name":520},"01knpnnj22t6rd9z8373hb0zv8","lindy-west-rriw","Lindy West",[522,526],{"id":523,"name":524,"slug":525,"is_fiction":21},118,"Satire","satire",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":155,"complexity":10,"audience":157,"mood":529,"themes":530,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[159,160],[],{"id":532,"slug":533,"title":534,"description":535,"primary_cover_url":536,"cover_blurhash":537,"first_publish_year":538,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":539,"authors":540,"genres":545,"series":556,"enrichment":561},"01kx2p9g9y0cnmp1yw44w75ns3","fairest-of-all-uf2a","Fairest of all","After moving to a new house, nine-year-old Abby and her younger brother Jonah discover an antique mirror that transports them into the Snow White fairy tale.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2p9gaf8j8yr4wp6n2h5d1x.jpg?v=446e9c20db","LPLOA.rWc[pI.Sg4V@n%ROkBZ~Z~",2012,184,[541],{"id":542,"slug":543,"name":544},"01kjsyhzz2k8xj32pj505kyp7q","sarah-mlynowski-o2ia","Sarah Mlynowski",[546,550,554,555],{"id":547,"name":548,"slug":549,"is_fiction":21},65,"Middle Grade","middle-grade",{"id":551,"name":552,"slug":553,"is_fiction":21},12,"Fairy Tales","fairy-tales",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":324,"name":325,"slug":326,"is_fiction":21},[557],{"id":558,"slug":559,"name":560,"position":177,"is_main_entry":21,"parent_id":10,"parent_slug":10,"parent_name":10},"01kp3t5dvd9wjd1nw2sf52hz7g","whatever-after-ddfi","Whatever After",{"pace":155,"complexity":10,"audience":422,"mood":562,"themes":564,"setting_period":10,"summary":10,"content_warnings":10},[159,563],"whimsical",[332,565],"portal-fantasy",{"id":567,"slug":568,"title":569,"description":570,"primary_cover_url":571,"cover_blurhash":572,"first_publish_year":514,"community_rating_avg":10,"community_rating_count":18,"page_count":142,"authors":573,"genres":578,"series":584,"enrichment":585},"01kx2bz2b01vgxv7s3dbzcvyxy","how-to-date-men-when-you-hate-men-3bxm","How to Date Men When You Hate Men","From New Yorker and Onion writer and comedian Blythe Roberson, How to Date Men When You Hate Men is a comedy philosophy book aimed at interrogating what it means to date men within the trappings of modern society.

As a child, Madden lived a life of extravagance, from her exclusive private school to her equestrian trophies and designer shoe-brand name. But under the surface was a wild instability. The only child of parents continually battling drug and alcohol addictions, Madden confronted her environment alone. Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.
