The Days of Abandonment by Elena Ferrante. She writes viscerally about the horror of sharing kids with someone who left you. So might scare you from having kids just because of the underlying ties that bond you to your partner
“Even if I tried to tell myself that I had given him nothing, that the children were mostly mine, that they had remained within the radius of my body, subject to my care, still I couldn’t avoid thinking what aspects of his nature inevitably lay hidden in them.” – Elena Ferrante
