Like shopping at Crate and Barrel and knowing where to get artisanal cheese, obsessive mothering is a class marker.Rebecca Tuhus-Dubrow, “Natural Woman: Why Motherhood Returned to the Center of Women’s Lives” (Boston Review, July/August 2012)

About

Boston Review is a magazine of ideas, independent and nonprofit. We cover lots of ground—politics, poetry, film, fiction, book reviews, and criticism. But a few premises tie it all together: that democracy depends on public discussion; that sometimes understanding means going deep; that vast inequalities are unjust; that human imagination breaks free from neat political categories; and that powerful images are worth piles of words.
