The Red Notebook is an ambitious, lyrical autobiographical novel that addresses women's experience and memory as it teases out competing, sometimes paradoxical demands of motherhood. For the protagonist, political commitment is an endeavor that can't compare to motherhood, but motherhood is the site in which politics and the personal coincide capturing and even trapping women. Author Urretabizkaia offers us the confessions of a woman forced to weigh political commitment against motherhood.
