My Mother, My Daughter, My Self is a significant self-revelatory
work which chronicles the separation process between mother and
child, focusing most specifically on the mother/daughter
relationship. The book asks a core question for all mothers and
adult children: how do we perform the perplexing, sometimes
terrifying act of separation from our mothers and our children
while simultaneously marching toward the unknown terrain of
individuality? How do we yield to this inevitable process of
emotional separation from that which was once our own self? The
author uses her own experiences as a daughter, as a mother of a
newly-adopted baby, and as a psychoanalyst to explore an essential
truth: that our relationships with our mothers affect our other
significant love relationships, our values, our self-esteem, and
our sense of satisfaction, often throughout the whole of our lives.
She also uses the experiences of some of her patients, taken from
her forty years as a practicing clinician, to provide further
fascinating insights and illustration.Readers are gifted with both
an internal parenting 'guide' as well as a deeply profound memoir
about the internal process of being a mother that is so crucial,
yet rarely looked at so intently.
