It could be your neighbor who goes for a run every morning, a blogger you like to follow on social media or even a close friend. All of them may be women who are unsuccessfully trying to become mothers.
The novel "Not Pregnant" was created based on the author's personal experience. More than five years of failed pregnancy planning become a painful, sometimes funny, but frank story about a young woman who dreams of motherhood.
About social pressure and visits to doctors, unconventional medicine and attempts at artificial insemination, double life in social networks, emigration, and return to Ukraine - this autobiographical novel raises many difficult topics. But the most important question is whether it is necessary to give birth to become a mother. And the author found this answer: both in life and in the novel "Not Pregnant".
