'Will bring comfort and courage to all its readers' Nell Frizzell, author of Holding the Baby





Motherhood feels as though you have woken up in Oz and everythings in Technicolor. But also, youve been crushed by a house.





Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett began writing The Republic of Parenthood in the final weeks of her pregnancy. The plan was to document, in real time, what it means to be a parent in Britain today. But when her son was born five weeks early, she found herself catapulted into parenthood: a world of crushing love, and fear, and hope.





Drawn from Cossletts agenda-setting Guardian column, alongside new essays and beautiful illustrations by Pia Bramley, The Republic of Parenthood is a fearless account of the first years of this new life. From Rachel Cusk to Anne Enright, many seminal writers have tackled the subject but, as a new generation become parents, Cosslett uses razor-sharp honesty and great humour to explore the unique challenges they face. 





The Republic of Parenthood wrestles with the entire joyful, overwhelming, messy experience, whether writing about the impact of Britains catastrophically expensive childcare system, or the quest for the pair of socks that can withstand a persistent toddler's best efforts. At its heart is the understanding that something so entirely personal is also political; a paean to love and pain, and one that will resonate with weary parents everywhere.

Recenzijas

'How glad I am for Cossletts bright, magpie-like mind. Gathering knowledge and insight from all over works of literature, online forums, the playground bench she makes a courageous investigation of modern motherhood; a vast, polyphonous celebration of new parenthood in all its forms' Helen Jukes, author of Mother Animal 'This funny and often political collection of her columns is one of the few books I have read that honestly conveys the cocktail of complicated feelings that accompany becoming a parent' Caroline Sanderson, The Bookseller 'Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett is one of the most righteous, well-informed, entertaining and much-needed voices we have today, writing about motherhood, family, health, politics, babies and all the other things that keep us up at night. This beautiful collaboration with Pia Bramley is a perfect fit and will bring comfort and courage to all its readers' Nell Frizzell, author of Holding the Baby 'I am so grateful for Rhiannon Lucy Cossletts groundbreaking essays on parenthood. She is a truly fearless writer, taking on the politics of parenting, the social injustices, but also vitally the love, joy, and absolute silliness involved in raising children. This collection is essential reading for parents, grandparents, politicians, and anyone who has ever been parented' Becky Barnicoat, author of Cry When the Baby Cries
