'Heilbrun devotes a good deal of space in these lectures to the mother-daughter relationship - "the least explored and understood among all human relationships," she has called it - and she writes movingly of the guilt and pain suffered by women who, taking advantage of choices unavailable to their mothers, must necessarily leave them behind.'
