Ducks, Newburyport book cover

Ducks, Newburyport

Lucy Ellmann

An Ohio housewife lattices cherry pies while trying to navigate the overwhelming amount of meaningless information in America. She worries about everything from her family and deceased parents to Weapons of Mass Destruction and hatching an abandoned wood pigeon egg. Ducks, Newburyport is a scorching indictment of America's barbarity and a lament for our impact on the environment. It's a wonder, a heresy, and a revolution in the novel - and it's also very, very funny.

@samjordison She wrote a fabulous brilliant book that centered motherhood. The one line is not problematic becoz of what she says as an author. On the contrary I feel that it is the system that does this to mothers, prevents them from the public domain-and instils this preception among people      source
