Filled with humour and heart, Born for You charts the lives of women as they transition from self to mother, from child to adult, from certainty to uncertainty.
 
In twelve distinct but spiritually interwoven stories, we meet women at the crossroads of change. A new mother learns about love in a pandemic. A woman’s desire to nurture takes a surprising twist. A visit to the tropics sparks questions of inheritance and legacy.
 
Against the backdrop of a changing world, these stories reveal the inner pulse of domestic life – the acts of love and caring that illuminate our best and worst selves, the disappointments that build to regret, and the moments of reckoning that shape a life.
 
Magdalena McGuire’s stunning first collection is an insightful and hopeful exploration of family life and desire.
