Summary

While in Malawi, the author picked up a just-born baby with her bare hands, not realizing the mother was HIV positive. The resulting process of prophylaxis and testing inspired her to reflect on the ways in which fear and anxiety are laced through her own family, and the sacrifices and risks mothers take for their children. The book evolves into a meditation on family, motherhood, birth, death, fear, and privilege, set against the backdrop of faith and global responsibility
