Nobody's Mother is a collection of stories by women who have already made. I enjoyed the essays. It is a book that I will read again, I am certain. I particularly liked the personal reflections and commitment to life choices, those to be celebrated and some to be endured. Although the title is a bit misleading because most of these women are not "without kids". Many of them teach, mentor and parent and though their choice may not to have been to birth a child, these women have children in their lives. I had expected a more varied body of non-mothers, but enjoyed what each had to say.

Nobody's Mother: Life Without Kids. They ached from a pile of books and the weight of all the other things I tried to carry to make up for the cultural dearth of my childhood - Rilke's advice to a younger poet, Germaine Greer, good shoes, Bertolt Brecht, Cabernet Sauvignon, avocados and tall jars of olives, Bob Dylan, Yeats and Akhmatova, curries and rare roast beef, Ibsen. and Bergman, freesia in the house in a milk-glass vase. My life without children did not feel empty. Nor does it now. Questioning the question. Her life went on without us; we weren't what gave her days grace or value.
