What's After Making Love traverses a woman's life from childhood to maturity with stops along the way for grief over a son's death, conflicted emotions over a mother's death, long love for a husband, betrayals of that love and realistic assessments of women's traditional roles and the complications they present for achieving full personhood. Motherhood and marriage are strong thematic components of the collection, and the title's question leads to a ruminative exploration of all the many possible answers that fall under its umbrella.
