Apple: Sex, Drugs, Motherhood and the Recovery of the Feminine is a 2022 non-fiction, semi-autobiographical cultural analysis of the 20th and 21st centuries through the prism of obstetric practice, written by Australian author and journal Antonella Gambotto-Burke. It made the front page of the Australian national paper, which also published a 3000-word excerpt.[1]
Reader's Digest described Apple: Sex, Drugs, Motherhood and the Recovery of the Feminine as "a major cultural event" and stated that it was "the first time" a connection had been made between "a wide range of personal and social issues — from drug addictions and mental illness to the breakdown of relationships — to the manner in which women are treated during pregnancy and labour."[2]
