Un(mother): A Creative Exploration of Childlessness

This book is for anyone who has ever felt other to mother.

For women who just can’t decide. For women who are running out of time. For women who are trying and those who are grieving. For women who have chosen not to try.

Come, join us on a journey through our Otherhood. Hear our voices and join the chorus.
It’s time we told the stories of the other side.

Featuring words from a chorus of talented poets and writers, Un(mother) is a thoughtful and sensitive collection of poetry and prose exploring the experience of being childfree or childless in 21st century society. Born from a Growing Poetry project, the book, alongside an accompanying piece of digital art, aims to amplify the voices of all women who do not have children: from those who chose this path, to women whose bodies or circumstances made that choice for them, as well as women who were contemplating the path they wanted to take.

All profits from the sale of this book go to Wish, a mental health charity for women.
