"El Retoño which Parí: A Manual of programming mother" is a book of short stories which, without falling into the topics of idyllic motherhood, pinpoints chapter to chapter different realities related to children, mothers and fathers.
Tells us in a style close stories of different maternity units, of broken relationships when a child comes in way of the magical moment in which another couple decides to have a child in common, the doubts of the unknown that bring new life to the world...
Also appears the subject of infertility through characters who can't (for now) realize their dream of becoming parents, although then there are different conclusions: the final achievement of pregnancy and adoption.
The book "The shoot I Paris" is divided into 22 chapters (more an epilogue) which are alternating these three main story lines: the couple that achieves desired pregnancy, unwanted pregnancy of abuse and the drama of infertility.
The stories are basted with reflections on motherhood by hand of the narrator who shows us the different characters in each chapter. Characters with doubts, happy, hopeful, fearful, disappointed... that ultimately go shelling all the faces of the central theme.
But the work does not display all possible maternity facilities. Do not appear (or the main only do tangentially to be criticized and even, I would say, despised) some maternity clinics which do not fall within the more traditional and conservative design than it is to bring children into the world.
Although I agree the importance of motherhood and the attachment, which is widely developed in the work, I've found that there are some issues which are addressed from a point of view very traditional or conventional, and rather Manichean to redial the thesis. I explained with examples of the work.
If the mother is going to work, the children grow abandoned and end up being abusers as his father. If the woman wants to be a single mother, is something unnatural and she giving them is modern really is seen as "asshole" (this, I have to say, found me particularly retrograde).
If parents hire a nanny to care for their child, they are irresponsible and she drug your child to rest. In day care children become infected with ear infections that leads them to lose hearing... An abuser that his wife is not separated and that perpetuates the abuse in his son can finish regenerating...
So talk about some of the characters, so others, question that have "chirriado me" enough and that has made me to distance myself from the different chapters, far to achieve identification that I approached to the message or the characters Act. I ended up almost thinking that on the subject of artificial insemination also he will find some rant against not being in the way of making children "of life"...
A personal vision imposed by a conception Christian rather conservative, respectable but that I not identify, and that I think you will either like a reader with other ideas about the freedom of women and motherhood in a broader sense (and not only of the traditional family).
The author of these stories about motherhood is the Mexican Maria Teresa Topete, which first enters the narrative. Is graduated from the Instituto Tecnológico de Estudios Superiores de Occidente as a degree in Sciences of communication, advertising and marketing expert, in addition to being Professor, and poet, but also mentor, daughter, sister, friend, friend and before and most of all, mother.
Simple illustrations of "the bud that Parí: A Manual of programming maternal" are the work of Bety Rodríguez and the book is published by Nowadays Orange Productions LLC. You can buy at Amazon in different formats, from where you can read the first few pages and I form an idea of the work.
