520    "Alina and Laura are independent and career-driven women 
       in their mid-thirties, neither of whom have built their 
       future around the prospect of a family. Laura is so 
       determined not to become a mother that she has taken the 
       drastic decision to have her tubes tied. But when she 
       announces this to her friend, she learns that Alina has 
       made the opposite decision and is preparing to have a 
       child of her own. Alina's pregnancy shakes the women's 
       lives, first creating distance and then a remarkable 
       closeness between them. When Alina's daughter survives 
       childbirth--after a diagnosis that predicted the opposite-
       -and Laura becomes attached to her neighbor's son, both 
       women are forced to reckon with the complexity of their 
       emotions, their needs, and the needs of the people who are
       dependent upon them"--|cProvided by publisher.
