This volume examines experiences and meanings of motherhood impacted by displacement and intergenerational trauma. The collection builds upon Marianne Hirsch's concept of postmemory, which states that the " generation after [will] grow up dominated by narratives that preceded their birth, whose own belated stories are evacuated by the stories of the previous generation shaped by traumatic events that can neither be understood nor recreated" (Hirsch 22). The volume contextualizes concepts of postmemory through the perspectives of the mother, the mother/child relationship, and the mother/society dynamic. Through research, personal narratives, and creative and artistic reflections, the chapters construct diverse interpretations of postmemory in relation to mothering.
