The love between a mother and her daughter is special. A mother takes her daughter under her wing and teaches her how to be a woman.

Sexual activity, for women, has a history of vulnerability, in a way it simply does not have for men. The mother has to teach thishidden text to her daughter. The mother's warnings, her attempts to halt sexual development in her daughter, are not so much signs of disapproval or envy, but of fear.
My mother and her plans for my future. She had it all worked out. I would attend a nice college, then get a job in advertising.

There's no reason not to employ, seek out and take a chance on a woman filmmaker that you might not have been looking at her direction.

Mab Jones' poetry is suffused with a cool wit and a wisdom beyond her years. She is a superb performance poet in the tradition of Joolz Denby and Pam Ayres and, like them, her work is beautifully layered and contains bittersweet depths.
