About this listen
'Tender, emotive and quietly revelatory' Irish Times
'Distinctive, original . . . Louie's approach to childless lives is thoughtful and empathetic' Caroline Magennis, author of Harpy: A Manifesto for Childfree Women
Who are you? What does your life look like? Did you choose this, or did it happen to you? How do you spend your time? And your energy? And your money? Are you happy? Are you scared? Are you lonely? Do you regret not having kids? If yes, why? If not, why not?
Others Like Me is the story of fourteen women around the world, from different walks of life, who don't have children. It's also the story of why Nicole Louie had to find them and what they taught her. Part memoir, part exploration of childlessness through candid conversations, this book showcases the many ways in which people find fulfilment outside of parenthood. And because the social expectation to procreate weighs the most on women, Louie focuses solely on them, their experiences and how they flourish outside of motherhood. In doing so, she upends the stereotypes that diminish women who are not mothers and offers reassurance and companionship on a path less known.
'Deeply felt and deeply researched, books like this will help women decide what is right for them' Rowan Hisayo Buchanan, author of Harmless Like You
'An uplifting read about finding fulfilment outside of motherhood' The Gloss
'With candour and self-reflection, Louie takes us on her journey to a deeper understanding of wanting a life that does not include motherhood' Laura Carroll, author of The Baby Matrix©2024 Nicole Louie (P)2024 Hachette Audio UK
