Motherhead is a love song to mothers. Zwolinski barely scrapes the surface of all things motherhood, but her writing peels back the skin to reveal the nerves and the often-unseen experiences of motherhood. In a world saturated with the joy and beauty of being a mother, she pulls the curtain aside for the nitty gritty reality of it. This exposes the utter strength and resilience of mothers – they truly are the unsung heroes of our society. Motherhead is encouragement for mothers in the depth of it all. It’s a balm for those suffering from: mom-guilt, feeling touched-out, exhausted from pressure to bounce back, the constant ticker-tape of to-do lists running like a soundtrack, and so much more.  Motherhead isn’t a guidebook, but the poetry packages up mothering and delivers it with a bow. Motherhead is an homage to all the mothers.
