About this book

"This book argues that sistering is a female experience as significant as mothering or daughtering. It illuminates how sisters can go from being best friends as teenagers to distant companions in their thirties and forties. Growing up, they take on 'big' and 'little' sister roles of caring and cared-for sibling. Some become mini-mothers; others try to reverse their dominant or dominated roles within their family structure for more equal positions of power."--BOOK JACKET.
