Second Birth: a birth story -- Digital Download
Second Birth: A Birth Story is an essay zine by Amy Bornman. The 28-page illustrated zine recounts the birth of Amy’s second son in detail, and gently examines tender themes of matrescence, change, fear, power, and joy.
“Reminding myself to be thoughtless, notionless, maybe even hopeless. Hope for nothing except a healthy baby and intact self. Hope for nothing except pure change.”
To print your own zine, print the “second birth - printable.pdf” file on letter-sized paper using a printer that has automatic duplex printing. Print the cover file separately — card stock is amazing for this! Use staples or thread to bind!
Also includes a scrolling pdf for digital reading.
