English
By (author): Cherre Moraga
In a series of journal entriessome original passages, others revisited and expanded in retrospectCherrié Moraga details her experiences with pregnancy, birth, and the early years of lesbian parenting. With the premature birth of her sonwhen HIV-related mortality rates were at their highestMoraga, a new mother at 40-years-old, was forced to confront the fragile volatility of life and death; in these recorded dreams and reflections, her terror and resilience are made palpable. The particular challenges of queer parenting prove transformative as Moraga navigates her intersecting roles as mother, child, lover, friend, artist, activist, and more. With an updated introduction and other additions, including an afterword by Rafael Angel Moraga, this revised 25th anniversary edition of Waiting in the Wings is thoughtful and emotive, with prose that is sharp and beautifully written, from the voice of a beloved and incomparable writer.
