Description: You’re Wearing That? is Deborah Tannen’s insightful exploration of the complex and often emotionally charged conversations between mothers and daughters. Drawing on linguistics, psychology, and real-life examples, Tannen examines how language reflects love, criticism, misunderstanding, and deep connection within family relationships. Accessible and compassionate, this book helps readers better understand generational communication patterns and offers perspective on how words shape intimacy, conflict, and care. A thoughtful and widely read work by one of the most respected voices in language and gender studies.
