The Theme of Motherhood in Three Canadian Short Stories.
In the stories "Sophie", by Emily Carr, "The Gadabouts" by Gabrielle Roy, and "The Summer My Grandmother Was Supposed to Die" by Mordecai Richler, the theme of motherhood predominates. However, as this paper will argue, it is a form of motherhood whereby the women's lives are radically restricted by the social definitions of motherhood in their respective social contexts. To different degrees, the women are all victims of social pressures and conventions, which force these women into lives of domestic suffering and overwork. 3.5 pgs. 4 f/c. 3b.
