Thanks for including me, Lucy. xx

Brilliant list! Ann Patchett's novels often have a child-free or ambivalent mother character, but it's usually not too explicit. She's like an underground spokesperson: https://lithub.com/beyond-mothering-considering-ann-patchetts-novels-of-maternal-ambivalence/

Thanks, Monica. I haven't read Ann Patchett - I will look her up! I love the idea of an 'underground spokesperson'.

This is a great list, thank you! I am currently reading “Harpy: a manifesto for childfree women” by Caroline Magennis, it’s excellent.

Thanks Maria! I will look it up.

Great list Lucy, thanks. Another one to add to the list is "Childless voices" by Lorna Gibb.

Ooh thank you, I will take a look.
