"A powerful text. Archetti skilfully blends a deeply personal story with robust enquiry into the meaning and experience of involuntary childlessness. Weaving together personal diaries, interviews, poetry and analysis of contemporary media Childlessness in the age of communication: Deconstructing silence offers an innovative format that is eminently readable. The book illuminates an otherwise hidden topic and as a result it will be of interest to researchers, practitioners and those experiencing involuntary childlessness alike." - Dr Esmée Hanna, Centre for Reproduction Research, De Montfort University, Leicester, UK.
"Cristina Archetti's book melds together the personal and political to produce an academic tour-de-force which will put the study of involuntary childlessness firmly onto the radar of scholars and policymakers everywhere. Archetti has created a sustained piece of 'sensuous scholarship', both passionate and erudite in its exploration of the cultural communication mechanisms that silence childlessness and reinforce an antiquated pronatalist ideology. She illuminates society's blind spots around involuntary childlessness, showing how these fuel daily microaggressions against adults without children. An important, humane and hopeful book, it outlines what we can all do to create a more diverse and tolerant culture that recognises the contributions individuals without children make to a healthy civil society." - Jody Day, psychotherapist, founder of Gateway Women (www.gateway-women.com), and author of Living the Life Unexpected: 12 Weeks to Your Plan B for a Meaningful and Fulfilling Future Without Children.
"This book is a perfect reading both for those who are experiencing problems in family-building and for researchers in the field. The author puts childlessness in social and cultural context, expressed via individual experiences, both of her own and many others. The combination of perspectives, her analyses and the creative writing style contribute to our understanding of childlessness in a way that I have never encountered before." - Anders Möller, Professor Emeritus, Ersta Sköndal Bräcke University College, Stockholm, Sweden.
"This book captures the lived experience of people without children, revealing the political, social and personal chaos of involuntary childlessness. The threads of the analysis are pulled from a wide range of fields: demography, social sciences, philosophy, communication, and media studies. Woven through the multi-layered embroidery are the highs and lows of Cristina's experience-not only related to fertility treatment, but also to conducting research on a very sensitive subject. The final tapestry is an evocative, deeply moving, sincere, and thought provoking tour de force." - Dr Robin Hadley, founding member of Ageing Without Children (AWOC), and independent researcher on male childlessness and ageing, UK.
"The intrinsic worth of a woman, in our society, is still rooted in her role as a mother. Archetti reveals how being childless is a battle of learning to accept a "life never imagined" against a daily onslaught of messages coming from the media and society, which suggest that not having children is "less than." I hope that academics, reporters, politicians, and those who (most often without realizing it) dismiss, undervalue and misrepresent the childless read and take the time to understand not just the words of this book, but also those that remain unspoken." - Stephanie Phillips, founder, World Childless Week (https://worldchildlessweek.net/).
