The period just prior to the birth of one's child is a time of deep
personal development. Expecting Teryk is an intimate exploration,
written in the form of a letter from a parent to her future son,
that reclaims a rite of passage that modern society would strip of
its magic. Dawn Prince-Hughes, renowed author of Songs of a Gorilla
Nation: My Journey Through Autism, considers the ways her
disabilities might inform her parenting. She candidly narrates her
experience of becoming a parent as part of a lesbian couple-from
meeting her partner and the questions they ask about their
readiness to become parents, to the practical considerations of
choosing a sperm donor. Expecting Teryk is expressed through the
lens of autism as Prince-Hughes shares the unique way she sees and
experiences. Contemplating the evolutionary traditions of
motherhood, and embedded in the reassurances that nature offers,
Expecting Teryk is a work of sensuous wonder that speaks to the
deeper realities and archetypal experiences shared by all who
embark on the journey of parenthood.
