KID ME NOT: An anthology by child-free women of the '60s now in their 60s

Whatever became of the youth of the â€˜60s, the turbulent era of sex, drugs and rock & roll? Kid Me Not, a new collection of intimate stories by women from the first generation ever to have access to The Pill, offers a unique perspective on the decade before Roe v. Wade, when free love wasnâ€™t always free. As the womenâ€™s movement spread, these women faced a future of extraordinary possibilities â€“ possibilities seen by todayâ€™s youth as commonplace.

These writersâ€™ stories are universal â€“ they fell in love, most married, some divorced. Others divulge, for the first time, details kept hidden nearly five decades. Each recognized early the irresistible urge to defy tradition. They no longer felt obligated to follow in the footsteps of their mothers. Indeed, they no longer felt obligated to be mothers. In Kid Me Not â€“ with Foreword by Elizabeth Gilbert â€“ youâ€™ll discover how everyday women, childfree by choice or circumstance, created an array of fascinating, fulfilling lives.
