Description
"Sometimes a pregnancy diary, sometimes a surrealist meditation on grief, uncertainty, and the social norms around motherhood, In Vitro seeks to raise its voice about subjects that are still kept behind closed doors and discussed only in whispers, even among women. If motherhood is the cruelest miracle, as Sylvia Plath once said, this book is an intimate account of a medical intervention that both transforms the body and disrupts it."--
