Sistering: power and change in female relationships. 1st paperback edition.
UK: Palgrave Macmillan.
Abstract
This book explores the significance of sister relationships in women's lives. It documents sistering experiences through narratives of growing up, caring for the family, leaving home, and becoming a mother. Drawing parallels between sistering and caring, the book presents new material on a widespread yet invisible aspect of the social construction of femininity.
