«No Kid: Quarante raisons de ne pas avoir d'enfant» is Corinne Maier's essay, published by J'ai lu in paperback (160 pages, in French).
Corinne Maier questions one of society's great taboos: the obligation to have children. With an irreverent tone, the essay gathers forty reasons not to become a parent and portrays child-rearing as a source of constant worry, monotony and economic pressure, inviting readers to rethink motherhood and fatherhood as a personal choice.
The work originally appeared in 2007; this J'ai lu edition is from 2008 and belongs to the J'ai lu Essai collection (8657).
For readers of critical essay and humour with an interest in sociology, feminism and debates on family and birth rates.
Corinne Maier is a Swiss-born, French psychoanalyst, economist, and best-selling writer. She is best known for being the author of Bonjour paresse, a cynical critique of French corporate culture. In 2016, Maier was named as one of the BBC 100 Women.
