Motherless Daughters

Customer Reviews

A must read at any age - By: Margaret York, 15 Jul 2005
I first read this book 8 years ago having bought it because I was caring for a young 8 year-old girl who's mother had just died & wanted to find out what she might be feeling. As I turned the pages, I realised I was reading about my own feelings of loss primarily, as I thought at the time, for the loss of my mother through being adopted & came to understand that loss is not just about losing those who died. Over the years, I've dipped into this book & have drawn much comfort from knowing, I'm not the only one who felt different by not having a mother. Subsequently, that young 8 year-old girl, now 17, has also read it & has found it as equallly inspiring & comforting as I have. I went on to find my mother but I will never forget the feelings of loss I had for 38 years until I found her.

If there has to be a definitive book of this genre, then this is the one & should be read by daughters of any age, young or old. Perhaps one day, someone will write its' companion "Fatherless Sons".
