Four stories. Four mothers. Four crises. One great read. 
Our notions of motherhood run the gamut from the mythical SuperMom to the dreaded Mommy Dearest. None is entirely true, as all mothers are both perfect and flawed. Four mothers tells four stories. 

In The Beads, Iram is a mother coping with crisis — a child in a coma — when something happens that affects her entire outlook. 

In Almost Perfect, Bitsy wants her grandson, whom she is raising to be perfect. 
Tilda, the mother we meet in As Luck Would Have It, exudes luck from every pore, but she has one problem - her daughter's seeming lack of luck. 

Felicity is relishing her overbearing husband's absence on a business trip, when her Two-Day Break suddenly turns into a nightmare.
