Kessler creates an environment of mothers and children that
puts the reader into a trance, so much so that the significance of the environment
is not called into question until the book has closed. The forms fill the
reader with the building sense of uncertainty that the content has already set
within the reader. To read this book as a black and white view of motherhood
would be a disservice, because like motherhood, the place this book creates is
one of safety and danger.
