Mother's daughter (a set of 2 books). Traub M.

Extra children

What do children feel? Breast babies announce their desires crying. And those who are older? What do they think about at six, seven years? What is betrayal for them? What are they afraid of? We adults are touched, looking at the bears and hares from plasticine. We laugh and cry when we watch how children dance on the matinee. But do we know what is happening on the other side of the kindergarten fence? And most importantly, do we guess at what point our children learn not to live, but to survive?

Bad daughter

ten years ago, my book “Bad Mother” was published. I began to write her two weeks after the birth of my daughter. I needed to throw out the sudden awareness on paper - we are all afraid to be bad parents at certain moments. Underwear, underwear, underwriting, underwriting something of their own children. “Bad daughter” - about the relationship of the already adult daughter and elderly mother. And she is again about responsibility - already a subsidiary or sons - to her own parents. About unspoken grievances, an acute desire to become closer, more dear. And, of course, about the most important feeling - the child’s love for the mother.
