Description: |
Angela Bradbury has an appalling mother - self-effacing, self-sacrificing, expert at emotional blackmail. But in her relationship with her eldest and very difficult daughter, Sadie, Angela realises that she is imposing the same resentments and guilt that her mother inflicted on her. |
Synopsis: |
Angela Bradbury's 'Poor Mother' : delicate, humble, permanently disappointed, has made endless sacrifices for her family, for which they can never quite be grateful enough. 'You can't please your mother', as her father says.Even now, just one phone call from Mother can send Angela spiralling into guilt, self-recrimination and doubts over her own abilities as a mother. Worryingly, Angela's relationship with her own daughter Sadie seems to be going the same way, as Sadie develops into a sullen, unresponsive adolescent. It seems that motherhood is a heritage of disappointments and broken promises. But Angela is determined that, somehow, her relationship with Sadie will be different. |
