Abortion: loss and renewal in the search for identity

This text examines the thoughts that surround a woman's decision to end a pregnancy, and presents the thesis that voluntary abortion can often be a violent and unconscious act of self-realization. The author makes no attempt to argue for or against, or to deny the painful nature of the subject which she tackles, but instead looks at the way in which a decision to abort can affect a woman's inner life. 176 pages.
