The Washington Post Book World
"One of the most searingly honest and intensely personal works I have ever read...The accomplishments of women in the past four decades have indeed been remarkable and varied. But biology does not always suffer delays kindly, and many accomplished, vital women -- now ready to turn their considerable energies and talents to motherhood -- may be too late ....With alternating chutzpah and humility, tenderness and outrage, Fleming writes about choices made, risks taken, chances lost -- about reconciling dreams with reality and celebrating the outcome no matter what."
-- Barbara Lloyd McMichael
The Seattle Times
"A Rich And Poignant Memoir...An unflinching reckoning of the forces, both familial and historical, that make us who we are."
-- New Woman
"Anne Taylor Fleming has written an exceptional book with a dual lens, at once a wonderful memoir of growing up in California in the fifties and sixties, and then a star-crossed tale of the rites of trying to become pregnant with the new scientific technology of the eighties and nineties."
-- David Halberstam
"An Important Book, Beautifully Written, Wise And Bittersweet -- a story of our time for men as well as for women."
-- Tom Brokaw
"Anne Taylor Fleming writes magnificently, even magically, about the journey of so many women along the road to self-discovery. Any woman who has ever agonized over how and whether to mix having children with the rest of her ambitions will identify with the pain, the exhilaration, the doubts, and the confidence, laid out here for all to see."
-- Judy Woodruff
"Provocative...A terrific description of the infertility battle."
-- Sandra Dorr
