Trade Review
"Morch's gripping narrative of life and death at its most elementary stages is an unusually powerful and honest tale."-Chicago Tribune Chicago Tribune "The reader will gain valuable insight into the experience of childbirth and the individual and universal feelings of the women who share its wonder."-Los Angeles Times Book Review Los Angeles Times Book Review "The process of awaiting birth and adapting to motherhood is vivdly described and graphically illustrated with the author's own stylized but anatomically explicit prints. This book is perceptive and touching."-New York Times Book Review New York Times Book Review
