  • Résumé

  • On this US Election Day, November 5, 2024, New Legacy Radio has chosen to honor the voices of women without children. We also celebrate the North American release of Others Like Me: The Lives of Women without Children, written by author Nicole Louie. The book is available today in Canada and the United States and is published by House of Anansi. Others Like Me was published by Dialogue Books in hardback, eBook, and audio in all English-speaking countries except North America, on June 13, 2024. Others Like Me is the story of fourteen women around the world. The women are from different backgrounds and experiences and do not have children. It's also Nicole's story of why she 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 fulfillment outside of parenthood. And because the social expectation to procreate weighs the most on women, Nicole 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. This book is a must-read that will resonate with those who have had similar experiences and raise the awareness of anyone wanting to understand the real-world impact of pronatalist bias. This deeply personal exploration of childless and childfree women is also a celebration of women’s lives. The Irish Times selected Others Like Me as one of the nonfiction books to look out for in 2024 and the Stylist Magazine named it one of the best books about women without children. Today we celebrate the continuum of women's experiences of living without children and the beautiful tapestry woven by Nicole Louie, in Others Like Me. *Author Image: Photographer's Credit: © 2023 Amanda Braide
