The author of the highly acclaimed The Fates Will Find Their Way returns with a novel about a far-flung family reunited for one weekend by their father's death.

Esta Historia de las mujeres responde a la necesidad de ceder la palabra a las mujeres. Alejadas, desde la Antigüedad, del escenario donde se enfrentan a los dueños del destino, reconstruir su historia significa describir su lento acceso a los medios de expresión y su conversión en persona que asume un papel protagonista. Este análisis implica, asimismo, que las relaciones entre los sexos condicionan los acontecimientos, o la evolución de las sociedades. No se buscan conclusiones tajantes sino que las mujeres encuentren, al fin, su espacio propio.

Dass unter diesem Druck das Wohlbefinden von Müttern leidet, ist kein Wunder. Mareice Kaiser schreibt poetisch und politisch, faktenreich und persönlich, modern und mutig über Mutterschaft und zeigt, wo Mütter heute stehen: noch immer öfter am Herd als in Entscheidungspositionen. Und, wo sie stehen sollten: dort, wo sie selbst sich sehen, frei und selbstbestimmt.
