I have read, glanced at, flicked through and even enjoyed a lot of baby books but I have never read anything as brilliant as this. In short, lyrical, highly evocative passages she traces her emotions through pregnancy to the terrible twos. Subtitled “Stumbling into Motherhood” she records the highs and lows, the raw love, the mess, the fear and a pure zest for life as it happens. It’s fantastic, highly recommended whether you have a baby or not.
Anne Enright, one of Ireland's most remarkable writers, has just had two babies: a girl and a boy. Her new book, Making Babies, is the intimate, engaging, and very funny record of the journey from early pregnancy to age two. Written in dispatches, typed with a sleeping baby in the room, it has the rush of good news - full of the mess, the glory, and the raw shock of it all.
