Mother Tongue #4
Mother Tongue is a biannual magazine that interrogates (and celebrates) modern motherhood through inclusive stories about art, sex, pop culture, politics, food, and a few things in between. It’s not about kids or how to parent them: it’s about the nuanced lives we are living—as mothers, and much more.
From the team on Issue #4:
This edition, the fourth from the wonderful team at Mother Tongue might just have to be crowned 'Best cover ever' (Danielle here, yep). The human-cat nose boop which graces the pea-soup and candy pink Spring/Summer issue is something close to purrfect.
And inside, the content remains strong — from 'sexy lion dreams' with Bats for Lashes, reflecting on Whitney Houston, a winding story of 'revenge without remorse', building homes for the future, 'the everyday horror of our children’s unmeetable expectations' and, crucially, feline fixations.
