You never call! You never write!
The author describes the origins and history of the Jewish mother from her arrival in New York's Yiddish theaters and early American cinema to her present-day manifestations in the standup routines and television shows. She also tells the story of Jewish acculturation and assimilation in modern America, as well as changing notions of motherhood in American feminist discourse.
