(PRWEB) February 26, 2006 -- From the author of Everything I Need to Know I Learned from Other Women" comes a new book "Women’s Work is Never Done: Celebrating Everything Women Do" by .J Gallagher
“My mother used to shake her head and sigh. ‘Women’s work is never done.’ As a girl, I didn’t know what she meant. Today I know. I’ve learned that the phrase ‘working woman’ is redundant. All women work – most in their homes, many in the workplace, some in their communities, others in their places of worship – and all of us work just to keep body and soul together! We build and nurture relationships with friends and family. We communicate our desires, demonstrate our feelings, navigate our way through busy days and complex lives. We ovulate, menstruate, gestate, procreate, lactate, meditate, create, animate, illustrate, agitate, aggravate, debate, propagate, litigate, delegate, compensate, radiate, and emulate. Some women even levitate and aviate! Women’s work is cyclical, never ending, ever evolving, always important. This book is a celebration of women who work – and that’s all of us!”
~ BJ Gallagher, from the Introduction to Women’s Work is Never Done (Conari Press, March 2006)
Not to be confused with Alice’s famous remark on a memorable episode of the Honeymooners, “Men work from sun to sun, but women’s work is never done,” Women’s Work is Never Done by BJ Gallagher celebrates the fact that women’s work is never done because it’s never meant to be done. Women are meant to nourish and grow themselves and others, throughout their lives, and Gallagher’s book acknowledges and affirms it.
