In a compelling exploration of all things female, Mother, Daughter, Sister, Bride celebrates the defining connections among women while honoring their differences. Each chapter reveals the actions through which a woman connects with herself, with her family, with members of her community, and with other women—from quincea-era parties commemorating a Hispanic girl turning 15, to pre-wedding henna ceremonies in the Middle East, where the hands and feet of the bride and her party are lavishly painted for her special day.
