Summary Annotation <p>The mother-daughter relationship has preoccupied feminist writers for decades, but typically it has been the daughter's story at centre-stage. <em>Mothering the Self</em> brings together these maternal and daughterly stories by drawing on in-depth interviews with women who speak both as mothers and as daughters.</p><p>This study examines the ways in which these mothers and daughters participate in their understanding of class, gender, and race locations, both using and resisting them. The result is a fresh start from which to consider the far-reaching implications of this relationship - not simply for mothers and daughters, but in terms of how we understand the shaping of the self and its place within the social world.</p>
