Description

It is a familiar and comforting story: a mother's unreserved love across decades and continents. The unexpected death of Sarah Ferguson's mother has brought her to understand their relationship with a new clarity and to appreciate the woman beyond the mother. On Mother is a deeply personal reflection on mothers and daughters, and life.
