Synopsis Between Mothers and Sons by : Evelyn S. Bassoff
"Remarkable ... this extraordinary book helps mothers explore the challenges, frustration, pain and joy that are unique to raising sons." --Washington Post Book World A son's physical, emotional, and psychological development differs vastly from that of a daughter's -- and raising a son can pose unique challenges for a mother. With great clarity and sensitivity, this groundbreaking book from Dr. Evelyn Bassoff, acclaimed psychologist and author of Mothers and Daughters, explains how mothers can remain nurturing presences in their sons' lives throughout their many transitions. She details the important role a father plays in a son's growth, and how mothers can support and celebrate their sons' masculine energy -- whether it manifests itself in a love of playing football or playing piano. Dr. Bassoff also illuminates the varied demands of raising sons for married and single mothers, stepmothers, and mothers of gay sons. Drawing upon the best available research, as well as myths, legends, her experience raising her own son, and the personal stories of clients and friends, Dr. Bassoff offers an invaluable perspective on what mothers can do to insure that their sons become vital, loving men.

Synopsis Mothers and Sons by : Colm Toibin
With dazzling brilliance and empathy, Colm Tóibín's collection of stories wrestles with complicated themes of emotional restraint, the long reach of sexual repression, and the difficulty of escaping one's past. Each of the nine stories in this beautifully written, intensely intimate collection centers on a transformative moment that alters the delicate balance of power between mother and son, or changes the way they perceive one another. With exquisite grace and eloquence, Tóibín writes of men and women bound by convention, by unspoken emotions, by the stronghold of the past. Many are trapped in lives they would not choose again, if they ever chose at all. A man buries his mother and converts his grief to desire in one night. A famous singer captivates an audience, yet cannot beguile her own estranged son. And in "A Long Winter," Colm Tóibín's finest piece to date, a young man searches for his mother in the snow-covered mountains where she has sought escape from the husband who controls and confines her. Winner of numerous awards for his fifth novel, The Master—including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award—Tóibín brings to this stunning first collection an acute understanding of human frailty and longing. These are haunting, profoundly moving stories by a writer who is himself a master.

Synopsis Mothers and Sons by :
Mothers and Sons: In Their Own Words captures the compelling connections between mothers and sons and translates those subtle emotions into deceptively simple photographs. In the accompanying texts, mothers and sons reveal their most trying and their most exalted moments with candor and humor, recounting both extraordinary actions and everyday existence with enthusiasm, from a parent's lyrical essay to a two year old's uncomplicated observations. With an introduction by Isabel Allende, Mothers and Sons is a powerful tribute in both words and images to the unique yet universal relationship between mothers and sons.

Synopsis The Bond Between a Mother and Son Lasts Forever: A Blue Mountain Arts Collection on the Love, Hopes, and Dreams That Mothers and Sons Share by : Patricia Wayant
IT'S A BOY! To hear these words is the dream of every mother. From her son, a woman learns what it feels like to grow up in a male body. As his trusted adviser, teacher, and friend, she helps to shape his view of himself, of others, and of the world. She instills values and ideals that will stay with him throughout his life, and she has so many hopes and dreams for the man he will become. Because of her son, a mother's life will be more meaningful, her joys will be greater, and her heart will experience the greatest love imaginable. BOYS WILL BE BOYS! There are moments in a son's life when he tests his mother's resolve, as well as her patience, but the bond between them is unbreakable. She is his mirror for how he looks at the world and for how the world looks at him. As a child, he will turn to her for guidance, understanding, and support; as he grows older, he will do everything he can to protect and care for her. Though he may have difficulty putting his feelings into words, there is never any doubt of a son's respect, devotion, and incredible love for his mother. LIKE MOTHER, LIKE SON. For all their obvious differences, there could never be two people more alike. Their time together is filled with unforgettable memories and immeasurable rewards. The tenderness and pride they feel toward each other can only be surpassed by the happiness they share. Theirs is a close and enduring relationship that only a mother and son can ever know... and a very special feeling of love that lives forever in their hearts.

Synopsis Men and Mothers by : Hendrika C. Freud
Not all men vie with their fathers for the love of their mothers. In some families the mother becomes the central figure for her son - the father is excluded (or excludes himself) and does not come between mother and son. The main thesis of this book - using clinical vignettes and quotes from the work of Marcel Proust to illustrate the author's points - is that in these cases fantasies of matricide replace patricide. Men develop their male gender identity by being permitted to separate from their mother early on, but when a man does not resolve his infantile tie to his mother he risks remaining in a passive and/or dependent position towards her. Over-identification with the mother might ensue, hampering masculine development. Mothers who seek emotional support by binding their sons too closely can become seductive towards them. The child is inclined to try to satisfy the emotional needs of his mother, and he fears rejection if he asserts his independence instead of complying.
