Motherwell
A Girlhood
Deborah Orr
A poignant memoir, Motherwell delves into the complex mother-daughter relationship of a young woman who left her small town to attend university against her mother's wishes. Despite escaping her home, the protagonist's separation from her family is only superficial as she grapples with the influence of her mother's expectations on her individuality. A raw and heartfelt exploration of family and personal redemption.
