"All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does, and that is his." --Oscar Wilde

This collection of quotations from thinkers and writers celebrates and illuminates this relationship. From Oscar Wilde to Marlene Dietrich, from Simone de Beauvoir's daughter to Jane Austen and Emily Dickinson. Witty, clever, tender, and insightful, the quotes are accompanied by wonderful vintage photographs of mothers and daughters, making this a handsome gift for all mothers and daughters.
