Mother's Child
By Michael Conant
Genre: Women's
Literature
About the Book
Told in the voice of June, the story's
protagonist, Mother's Child is a "slice of life" as it unfolds during
a short period in a lifetime; strung together by one intensely charged event
after another. It is the humor of life, marriage, and motherhood surrounded by
the challenges of fighting the onslaught of an unknown disease, broken societal
systems, and the suffering of broken hearts. It is the story of the average
woman, finding her extraordinary voice, and having the courage to be heard.
In just over two
months, June Gallagher's life has turned upside down; it will take a lifetime
to resemble "normal" again. Her son's life is on the line--she is
determined to save him.
