Emily Matchar offers a smart, measured investigation into the cultural, social, and economic implications of a return to domesticity in this fascinating book chockfull of historical context, strong research and compelling personal stories (Christian Science Montor).Amid todays rising anxietiesthe economy, the scary state of the environment, the growing sense that the American Dream hasnt turned out to be so dreamy after alla groundswell of women (and more than a few men) are choosing to embrace an unusual rebellion: domesticity. A generation of smart, highly educated young people are spending their time knitting, canning jam, baking cupcakes, gardening, and more (and blogging about it, of course), embracing the laborintensive domestic tasks their mothers and grandmothers eagerly shrugged off. Theyre questioning whether regular jobs are truly fulfilling and whether its okay to turn away from the ambitions of their parents generation.How did this happen? And what does it all mean? In Homeward Bound, acclaimed journalist Emily Matchar takes a long, hard look at both the inspiring appeal and the potential dangers of this trend she calls the New Domesticity, exploring how it could be reshaping the role of women in society and what the consequences may be for all of us.This groundbreaking reporting on the New Domesticity is guaranteed to transform our notions of women in todays society and add a new layer to the ongoing discussion of whether women canor shouldhave it all.
