Unveiling Motherhood: Jennifer Case Challenges the Politics and Nature Behind Our Most Sacred Bond
Two of the essays that come to mind immediately when you ask that question: The first one is “A Cost Accounting of Birth,” which was my attempt at an abecedarian. So, A, B, C—the form goes through the alphabet. This wasn’t quite an abecedarian because I don’t have an A or a Z or a Y, and there are two Ds, for instance, so I had to shift that pattern to let the essay be what it wanted to be, but that was a fun one to write because I had all of this research about evolutionary biology, and I always wanted to do an abecedarian. I really enjoyed seeing what that form would let me do with the material.
