內容介紹

《媽媽們的怒火》是對面臨隱藏危機的美國母親的坦率而女性主義的探討,以及我們如何解決它。

 

母親們不應該生氣。然而,米娜·杜賓(Minna Dubin)曾是一位憤怒的媽媽:她感到精疲力竭,因全職育兒所需的艱苦而感到感激,覺得自己的職業生涯正在溜走,她會發現自己對孩子大吼或對丈夫大發雷霆。

 

當米娜·杜賓克服了羞愧,與其他母親談論她的感受時,她意識到她絕不孤單。《媽媽們的怒火》是米娜·杜賓開創性的報導寫作,關於一股席捲全國和世界的不為人知的憤怒危機。她發現,儘管憤怒的具體事件可能僅僅是由孩子不肯綁鞋引起的,但憤怒的根源遠不止於此,從母親肩負的不平等的育兒負擔,到女性在擁有孩子後身份的平淡。她根據來自不同種族、性取向和階級的母親的見解,提供實用工具,幫助讀者在當下化解他們的憤怒,同時永不忘記我們需要實現的更廣泛的社會變革,以停止無休止的憤怒。

書評

“Few issues are left untouched in this thought-provoking book on a hot topic that is seldom discussed.”―Library Journal

“an original, eye-opening look at the rage that can consume mothers… This book represents a voice that belongs in every parenting collection."―Booklist

“The author’s candid appraisal of her own rage . . . and her penetrating insights make for captivating reading. It’s an astute account of how society fails mothers." ―Publishers Weekly
 

“A cleareyed analysis of the intricate web of cultural and political challenges that make female-identified parenting nearly impossible . . . the author writes with humor, vulnerability, and a level of expertise that shape her narrative into a nuanced and convincing argument for justice.”

―Kirkus

“Mom Ragemakes crucial space for all of us who have experienced the sudden, terrifying urge to stab a mattress with a kitchen knife, punch a wall, or squeeze our children a little too tightly. Dubin reminds us our darkest moments are symptoms of systemic failings, not signs of personal flaws—and that our anger should be harnessed as an animating force for equity.”
 ―Angela Garbes, author of Essential Labor

“Mom Rage does an expert job weaving data and research to explain why moms are in crisis while also giving us thoughtful individual and systemic solutions.”―Eve Rodsky, author of Find Your Unicorn Space

“Breaking down the unnamable feelings so many women have as mothers, Mom Rage is a must-read for women who struggle to reconcile the cultural pressure to be 'good mothers' with the powerful negative emotions that come with parenting."―Soraya Chemaly, author of Rage Becomes Her
 

“If you've ever screamed at your child in ways that shock you — and we all have, haven't we? — Mom Rage is an absolute must-read. As Minna Dubin argues, your anger is not a moral failing. This book is an eye-opening exploration of the many social forces that drive mothers to explode at their children, as well as the societal and situational solutions that could, ultimately, save us.”

―Melinda Wenner Moyer, author of How to Raise Kids Who Aren't Assholes
 

"Mom Rage is a critical addition to the literature of mothering, compassionately exploring the ugly, rageful moments that haunt many of us even as we struggle to do right by our kids. Dubin invites us to consider our rage in the full context of a perverse, broken, contradictory, and cruel American system that fails families at every turn. I needed the compassion of this book, as well as its expansive look of what parenting can and should be.”

―Lydia Kiesling, author of The Golden State
