Reviews

?This innovative anthology?a combination of essay, poetry, memoir, reflection ?complicates the categories of both Mennonite and Mother. By offering multivaried positions from which to consider the concept of mother, Mothering Mennonite adds depth to common conceptions of Mennonite identity while also undoing stereotypes which surround mothering in that context. Together, the contributions offer an important glimpse into the intersection of gender, religion, culture, and identity.? ?Marlene Epp, Professor, History and Peace & Conflict Studies, Conrad Grebel University College,University of Waterloo ?A beautiful, intelligent, spiritually rich, intimate, and scholarly collection of essays drawing on various disciplines. In its breadth and depth, this collection meets a need for mothers like myself who live with the tension of being independent, thinking, artistic mothers who live to varying degrees within a conservative religious community, and/or were, in their youth, shaped by strongly held religious beliefs, practices, and values. This book makes an important contribution to the larger field of Motherhood and Spirituality.? ?Alana Rub en Free, playwright, Beginner at Life and other Eden Plays, and founding editor of The Mom Egg
