Milk: On Motherhood and Madness by Alice Kinsella

emotional informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

This is possibly one of the most perfect non-fiction books I've read in a long time, although Kinsella discusses whether she can stand over it being fact or fiction. Milk is a phenomenal capturing of the anxiety and frustration of being a mother in the 21st century. I found the rabbit holes of worry uncannily relatable. It is of course beautifully written, juxtaposing the tenderness and violence of pregnancy and motherhood, making for an emotional read.
