Doughters of Saturn

From Father’s Daughter to Creative Woman

358 pages, ISBN 1-882670-32-9 / 978-1-882670-32-1, Spring Publications

Patricia Reis examines the father-daughter relationship with a focus on the father’s effect on a woman’s creative life. Beginning with Saturn-the archetypal devouring and melancholic father - and moving through myth, dreams, and woman’s experience, Reis explores the many ways that contemporary Daughters of Saturn have come to understand their experience.
