The Baby on the Fire Escape: Creativity, Motherhood, and the Mind-Baby Problem

How do women manage creativity and motherhood? The takeaway from this book is that they don't. The women covered seem more likely to get an abortion or enter enter into lesbian relationships than to take on motherhood. The focus is very narrowly on women that had lived through the late 20th feminist movement. It would be interesting to see women that have a greater diversity. Are there more cases where women have both willingly raised a family and been creative? Has it become easier or harder today?
