A memoir culminating in a manifesto, Holding the Baby sets out to understand why we still treat early parenthood as an individual slog rather than a shared cultural responsibility. Tracing her own journey to the nadir of sleeplessness via social retreat and murderous rage, Frizzell draws on the latest research to explore: What effect does parenting have on your career? How can we make childcare affordable and fit for purpose? If parenting is so hard, why does anyone ever do it more than once?

After 20 years as a stripper, I have a few stories to tell. And after three books about dancing, I've told most of them.

Sometimes funny but always dirty, it's smut for the sheer fun of it.

“My father didn’t need this walk, not the way I do. For him it would have been a fun way to spend some time with his son. He had, I begin to realize, a talent for living in the moment… Perhaps a pilgrimage would help me find happiness. Perhaps I could walk my way into a better frame of...

It all starts on New Year's Eve. A night that has to be a success, whatever the cost. For Joni and her friends, it'll be a party that promises all the high stakes and glamour of any other, but by sunrise, they'll be dealing with something darker than the usual post-party comedown. Not that they let this stand in their way. For this is their year to revel in all that the playground of London has to offer: sneaking into places they shouldn't, breaking every rule, falling in love with the wrong people. All the while avoiding one undeniable truth: it's not if the party ends, it's how.

Everyone is moving on...and then, there's Hanna. By 30, Hanna expected to have it all (or at least some of it). A fulfilling and successful career. A healthy, long-term relationship, maybe even an engagement ring. A house (or at least a flat) of her own. But in reality, she's back at square one. Single after breaking up with someone she's not sure ever loved her. Flooded with wedding invitations and pregnancy scan pictures from friends. Unable to afford to live on her own, moving in with her (also single and dating) father.

Sommer in Brandenburg: Das war Jungsein. Das war Rauchen in den leeren Kasernen, nachdem die sowjetischen Soldaten weg waren. Das war Umherstreifen. Das war die lange Dorf-straße und der Bus, der nur dreimal am Tag fuhr. Das war Schwimmen gehen. Das war die Angst vor den Faschos. Das war die Freundschaft zwischen Anne und Bettina. Das war, bevor Bettina sich zurückgezogen hat und als Anne noch dachte, dass alles anders werden könnte. Das waren die 90er in der Provinz.

We have descriptors for many periods of life, but there is a period of profound change that many women face, often in their late 20s to early 40s, that does not yet have a name. Nell Frizzell is calling this period of flux “the panic years", and it is often characterized by a preoccupation with one major question: Should I have a baby? Frizzell uses personal stories from her own experiences in the panic years to illuminate the larger social and cultural trends and gives voice to the uncertainty, confusion, and urgency that tends to characterize this time of life.
