Synopsis

What happens when you start to get a grip on education and working life - and everyone around you take the plunge with couplehood and children? And how do your surroundings react when you actually don't wish to have children?

StineStregen handles sensitive topics in her usual suprior balance between vulnerabilty and humour.


Reviews

"What I love the most about the book, is the main character's solidarity, love and eagerness to understand other women's situation." – (Kristeligt Dagblad)

"It is a moving and engaging book. StineStregen gets into all angles of being voluntarily childless. There is a caring approach to both those with and without children, but at the same time a sense of sharp societal satire." – (Lektørudtalelse (Library review))
