Join authors Louisa Hall, Chandler Baker, Szilvia Molnar in a poignant conversation about the darker sides of motherhood as seen in their novels. Hall’s June 2023 harrowing, genre-defying novel Reproduction explores an author’s experience with pregnancy, miscarriage, and birth in a country torn by crisis. Baker’s national bestseller Cutting Teeth tells the story of three mothers attempting to reclaim the parts of their identities shadowed by motherhood as their children begin to crave blood. In her debut novel The Nursery, Molnar details the before and after of motherhood through the lens of a new mother struggling with postpartum depression.
