Synopsis

Winner of the Chommanard Book Prize, Suffering Mother tells the stories of 20 mothers through the eyes of the author, an obstetrician. The author’s patients are known by the names of various plants. The author’s long-deceased mother is “Jasmine.” From a mother’s greatest sacrifice to abortions and domestic violence, Suffering Mother dissects what it means to be a mother. Provocative, insightful, and deeply therapeutic.
