Her birth plan is explicit: she wants no fetal monitor, no IV, no epidural. Franckline, a nurse in the maternity ward—herself on the verge of showing—is patient with the young woman. She knows what it’s like to worry that something might go wrong, and she understands the distress when it does. She knows as well as anyone the severe challenge of childbirth, what it does to the mind and the body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEleven Hours\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of two soon-to-be mothers who, in the midst of a difficult labor, are forced to reckon with their pasts and re-create their futures. Lore must disentangle herself from a love triangle; Franckline must move beyond past traumas to accept the life that’s waiting for her. Pamela Erens moves seamlessly between their begrudging partnership and the memories evoked by so intense an experience: for Lore, of the father of her child and her former best friend; for Franckline, of the family in Haiti from which she’s exiled. At turns urgent and lyrical, Erens’s novel is a visceral portrait of childbirth, and a vivid rendering of the way we approach motherhood—with fear and joy, anguish and awe.\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePamela Erens\u003c\/b\u003e's second novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Virgins\u003c\/i\u003e, was a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e Book Review Editor’s Choice and was named a Best Book of 2013 by the \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eNew Republic\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, and Salon.
