A profoundly personal and hopeful memoir about mothering, unconventional love, and finding community in unexpected places. Who among us hasn't thought that something--a marriage, the trials of parenthood, or even a season or a series of years--would be one way, and then it wasn't? The Unlikely Village of Eden explores what happens when life doesn't go to plan. Psychotherapist Emma Nadler offers a deeply personal window into raising a child with disabilities, learning to shed cultural expectations related to achievement in the process, and a reframing of success (in parenting and in life). This relatable memoir showcases the transformative power of embracing unconventional relationships with our community, families, friendships, and ultimately--ourselves. Nadler divulges the heartbreaking and sometimes hilarious struggles of her unexpected journey as a mother, its long-term effects on a marriage, and the power of challenging society's belief that self-sacrifice is a necessary component of love.
