The Republic of Motherhood by Liz Berry

4.0

THE REPUBLIC OF MOTHERHOOD is described by Liz Berry as a gathering of poetry, and this small collection is definitely powerful. The poet takes these pages to reflect on her experiences of both pregnancy and new motherhood, as well as how becoming a mother changes a woman. These poems were smart and fragile, full of depth and emotional resonance. While currently only available in the UK, I would recommend this small pamphlet of poetry to any woman regardless of their status as a mother or not.
