Lisa Genova
Two women meet by accident on a Nantucket beach and are drawn into a friendship. Olivia is a young mother whose eight-year-old severely autistic son has recently died. She comes to the island in a trial separation to try and make sense of the tragedy of her Anthony's short life. Beth, a stay-at-home mother of three, is also recently separated after discovering her husband's long-term infidelity.
Reuben Fine
Applying a traditional psychoanalytic approach to the development and counseling of women, Reuben Fine provides a comprehensive examination of emotional problems common to women. Drawing on over forty years of clinical experience as well as an extensive review of the psychotherapy literature, Fine describes the emotional conflicts women experience in key areas of their lives--including love, sex, communication, work, and creativity. Fine identifies the psychological and cultural factors that shape women's emotional difficulties--from unhappy childhood experiences and family disturbances to cultural taboos and stereotypes. He offers therapeutic guidelines for every stage of treatment and shows how they can be successfully applied in practice. Throughout the book Fine includes revealing case histories and rich examples that illustrate how to help troubled women; work through blocks to intimacy and form stable, loving relationships; learn to acknowledge and express important feelings; and build a positive self-image.
Mira Ptacin
"Guided by the narrative of her mother's tragic loss of a son years earlier, Mira Ptacin confronts an unexpected pregnancy with a child who has no chance of survival outside the womb. At age twenty-eight, Mira Ptacin discovered she was pregnant. Though it was unplanned, she soon embraced the pregnancy and became engaged to Andrew, the father. Five months later, an ultrasound revealed birth defects that would give the child no chance of survival outside the womb. Mira was given three options: terminate her pregnancy, induce early delivery, or wait and inevitably miscarry. Mira's story is woven together with the story of her mother, who emigrated from Poland, also at the age of twenty-eight, and adopted a son, Julian. Julian would die tragically, bringing her an unimaginable grief. A memoir about loss and self-preservation, grief and recovery, and mothers and daughters, Poor Your Soul is a beautiful examination of free will, love, and the fierce bonds of family"-- "At age twenty-eight, Mira Ptacin discovered she was pregnant.
