The book thrums with powerful young women.
With grit and reverence, this story collection is gorgeous in its honesty.
Like the women in her stories, Campbell's prose can be watchful and viscerally alive.
What it comes down to, in Campbell's world and in ours, is that to be female is to fight all kinds of trouble with all kinds of strength.
Campbell grounds us in such graphic grit, making these lives so bitterly, relentlessly real, we want to reach through the pages and pull them to safety--aware, alas, that many would firmly refuse rescue.
Mothers, Tell Your Daughters is filled with shifts...when a turn of fate, a moment in nature, brings surprises and revealing insights. And within the turmoil and the troubles, the demands and the limits of life, Campbell reminds us, there are possibilities for moments of grace.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Named by the Guardian as one of our top ten writers of rural noir, Bonnie Jo Campbell is a keen observer of life and trouble in rural America, and her working-class protagonists can be at once vulnerable, wise, cruel, and funny. The strong but flawed women of Mothers, Tell Your Daughters must negotiate a sexually charged atmosphere as they love, honor, and betray one another against the backdrop of all the men in their world. Such richly fraught mother-daughter relationships can be lifelines, anchors, or they can sink a woman like a stone. Artikel-Nr. 9780393353266
