Little Labors

“I love Rivka’s sentences and mind and that her experience of motherhood led her to this form.”

“One of the only books about motherhood/parenthood that I actually enjoyed reading. (Always worth reading Galchen, whether she is writing about theoretical physics or babies.)”

“This is obviously not food, but it’s my favorite book to give a new parent who is a reader. It’s tiny and beautiful—an absolute gem of a book. I usually have a few on my bookshelf so I can hand them out freely.”
