AMBITION, MOTHERHOOD AND THE MYTH OF HAVING IT ALL

Jodie Chapman & Rebecca Fallon

What happens when creative ambition collides with the realities of love, family, and expectation? Novelists Jodie Chapman and Rebecca Fallon explore the tension between domestic life and the drive to create. Spanning generations and shaped by loss, their stories trace how trauma echoes through families, while the dream of California shimmers in the distance - an alluring, impossible ideal of escape, reinvention, and something more.
