Future, Not Perfect: My Motherline Tale, Abstract

Weaving together narrative, reflection, poetry and academic source material, I trace and discover my maternal lineage, and “conceive” a descendant to carry it forward. My journey takes me through time and regions both near and far, from distant locales of my great-grandmother, to familiar property passed down through her lineage. As I query the shared familial myths, I uncover new insights into my family dynamics and make connections with the Goddess in some of her many guises.

Each week I will add more to my Motherline tale!
