Synopsis
A cartoon fried egg. An eye. The tiniest of black holes. It needed a professional eye to be seen, but once pointed out it was undeniable. My own little Big Bang. The beginning of it all. When Chitra Ramaswamy discovered she was pregnant, she longed for a book that went above and beyond a biology book or manual; one that, instead, got to the very heart of this overwhelming, confusing and exciting experience. So, she wrote Expecting. This memoir tells a different kind of truth, taking the reader on a physical, emotional and philosophical odyssey through pregnancy. Childbearing and childbirth are experiences defined both by the measurable changes to one’s life and body, and by those changes which can only be accessed through metaphor, art and emotion. Ramaswamy holds these two sides up to the light in this deeply personal yet expansive book. Exploring each of the nine months of Chitra’s pregnancy, Expecting is a book of intimate, strange, wild and lyrical essays that pay tribute to this most extraordinary and ordinary of experiences.

Paperback. Etat : New. "A cartoon fried egg. An eye. The tiniest of black holes. It needed a professional eye to be seen, but once pointed out it was undeniable. My own little Big Bang. The beginning of it all."When Chitra Ramaswamy discovered she was pregnant, she longed to read something that went above and beyond a biology book or prescriptive manual; something that, instead, got to the heart of this thrilling, bewildering, overlooked, and often misrepresented experience.Expecting is a creative memoir. Through nine chapters exploring the nine months of pregnancy and birth, Ramaswamy takes the reader on a physical, intellectual, emotional, literary, and philosophical journey through the landscape of pregnancy. Childbearing and childbirth are experiences defined both by the measurable monthly changes to one's life and body, and by those immeasurable, often obscured and neglected changes in perspective which are accessed through metaphor, art, and emotion.Ramaswamy bears witness to the individual and collective experience of pregnancy in this intimate yet expansive book of wild and lyrical essays, paying tribute to this most extraordinary and ordinary of experiences.
