Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This candid and philosophical memoir explores the complex decision to reproduce, opening in an abortion clinic and following Leslie Stein through a transformative year. As she navigates unexpected emotions, Stein reflects on her experiences while engaging with others. She visits a childhood friend raising twins sustainably, talks to another friend who chose a vasectomy to ease his wife's burden of birth control, and spends Christmas with her mother, who longs for a grandchild. Through these conversations, Stein engages in an ongoing dialogue with herself, presenting a narrative that is sometimes sweet, often humorous, and always deeply empathetic. She questions the meaning of life and the pursuit of joy amidst uncertainties, acknowledging that many questions remain unanswered, much like real life itself. Rather than focusing on trauma, this memoir highlights unpredictability, change, and adaptability, offering a fresh perspective on a topic frequently viewed in black and white terms. Stein captures the essence of the human experience—its contradictions and unforeseen challenges—with grace and humor, embracing the cosmic choreography of life and remaining open to whatever comes her way.
