Two lyrical novels in an elaborate, stream-of-consciousness style. The first (Mother Love) novel is a dramatic rendition of a death and a birth. A young woman attempts to re-create a relationship with her dead and unknown mother through fantasising about her own conception, her painful birth and dthe death of her mother. The second (Mother Earth) is an imaginary rendition of the love between a man and a woman. It is a description of sexual love from a woman's point of view.
