The critically acclaimed and award winning Paloma Faith has just announced her new book Motherhood, Identity, Love and F*ckery, publishing 6th June 2024, along with a live in conversation 12th June @ Union Chapel.
Can women have it all? What does it mean to be a woman and a mother in the modern age?
In this passionate, funny and fierce polemic, BRIT award winning Paloma Faith delves deep into the issues that face women today, from battling through the expectations of patriarchy to the Supermum myth.
Infused with Paloma’s characteristic humour and raw honesty about the challenges of IVF and the early years of motherhood, this book is a beautiful celebration of women’s work and the invisible load women carry. Moving from questions around identity and how motherhood impacts on that, to what it even means to be a “good mother”, how we need to embrace messiness, imperfection and the bitter sweet pleasures of being “selfish” and putting ourselves first.
Paloma invites us into her own coming of age and relationship with her mum, to explore how our bonds with our children evolve into adulthood. We see a glimpse of the complexities and joys of Paloma’s experience of juggling romantic love, heartbreak and dating with the demands of motherhood.
Paloma will be celebrating the release of her new book with an in-conversation event at Union Chapel Wednesday 12th June.
