"Meg Krantz is searching for a lot in her life, but not for a child. She has never known what kind of mother she'd be, selfless or purely acquisitive, and she hasn't been particularly eager to find out. Enter 4 1/2-year-old Kimble Toffler. Soon to be orphaned, Kimble comes into Meg's life through Meg's volunteer work. Before long Meg wonders if, and then how, she can forge a future with this child to whom she's grown so attached. The women in her life - her mother, the child's grandmother, two former lovers, and her therapist - each offer a different perspective on motherhood as they are drawn into Meg's efforts to gain custody of Kimble. In this provocative novel, her third, Patricia Grossman gracefully tackles the complex issues of adoption and lesbian parenting and blends them with the ageless and universal themes of motherhood and rescue."--BOOK JACKET.
