A Life'S Work Av Rachel Cusk

<p><b><i>A Life¿s Work </i></b><b>is Rachel Cusk¿s funny, moving, brutally honest account of her early experiences of motherhood. An education in babies, books, breast-feeding, toddler groups, broken nights, bad advice and never being alone, it is a landmark work, which has provoked acclaim and outrage in equal measure. </b><br><br>¿An incitement to riot . . . It¿s an extraordinary piece of work and the writing is utterly beautiful . . . I laughed out loud, often, in painful recognition.¿ Esther Freud<br><br>¿As compulsive as a thriller.¿ Kate Kellaway, <i>Observer</i><br><br>¿Thank god for Rachel Cusk¿s beautifully written and compelling memoir.¿ Claire Messud, <i>Guardian </i>Books of the Year<br><br>¿Cusk is not afraid to address frankly the grief for freedom lost, the despair, pain, boredom and guilt ¿ all in the context of the mother¿s unspeakable love for the baby . . . Perhaps the most beautifully written and moving book on the subject.¿ Stephanie Merritt, <i>Observer</i></p>
