The Motherline: Every Woman’s Journey to Find Her Female Roots<\/em><\/strong>
\nby Naomi Ruth Lowinsky<\/p>\n

Our mothers are the first world we know, the source of our lives and stories. Embodying the mysteries of origin, they tie us to the great web of kin and generation. Yet, the voice of their experience is seldom heard. The Motherline describes a woman\u2019s journey to find her roots in the personal, cultural, and archetypal realms. It was written for women who have mothers, are mothers, or are considering motherhood, and for the men who love them. Telling the stories of women whose maturation has been experienced in the cycle of mothering, it urges a view of women that does not sever mother from daughter, feminism from \u201cthe feminine,\u201d body from soul.<\/p>\n

Here what a few reviewers have had to say about The Motherline<\/p>\n
