Preferred term

Ayelet Waldman  

Definition

  • Ayelet Waldman is a fiction and nonfiction writer whose books and editorial columns challenge an idealized and romanticized vision of mothers as self-sacrificing and asexual. In a contentious essay published by the New York Times in 2005, “Truly, Madly, Guiltily,” Waldman famously stated that her children were not the center of her passionate universe.
