Synopsis
Deborah Tannen is both a serious linguist and a popularizer whose best-selling forays into interpersonal communication are usually shelved in self-help sections of bookstores. In YOU'RE WEARING THAT? Tannen tackles the thorny issue of mother-daughter relationships, and shows that, as she has said before, we "just don't understand." Tannen's examples of mother-daughter talk, some of which are pretty pointed, will strike a chord with readers, and she contributes a structured and insightful analysis of the multi-layered communication, both direct and indirect, that too often leads to anger and frustration--again and again. All is not Gilmore Girls here, as Tannen explains why this relationship is fraught with emotion, why mistakes get repeated, and why approval or disapproval is not the issue. She suggests ways to get beyond judgments and power plays, to acknowledge each other's role-expectation, and to really hear the heartfelt intentions behind the surface talk. (Warning: According to Tannen, the voice of the mother is still heard long after she is gone.)
