An artist's book, assembled and bound by hand, in which Stankute works on motherhood through her own experience and that of other mothers. It is built as something to handle: the unique experiences of different women, at different times, open out playfully and intimately as you go through it. In her own words, the experience of motherhood is different for every woman and is made of many different experiences, and yet all mothers, whatever lives they are living, find the things they have in common.
