"A sharp and often uncomfortable read of a dystopian future where people have been led by evil corporations, to the extent of having their entire lifestyles and mindsets brainwashed. Likewise, it's a harrowing tale of a young mother struggling to feed her child and find her own muddled identity. Read this and reflect because such behaviours are evident even now and we often turn an indifferent eye at marginalised groups and post-partum depression." —Joyce Chng, author of Wolf's Path

“emma burnett's Ex Partum is a gripping read that pulls you screaming through its ultracorporate dystopia and then deposits you, shivering with relief, before the promise of a better world. But the book isn't just an SFF must-read. It's a deeply human, almost claustrophobically intimate portrait of what it takes to care for an infant—and yourself—when everybody else cares only for conformance.” —Stewart C Baker, author of The Butterfly Disjunct
