I Dont Know How She Does It: by Allison Pearson
A victim of time famine, 35 year-old Kate counts seconds like other women count calories. A comedy about failure, a tragedy about success, this novel is the untold story of the professional working mum at the start of the 21st century.
'It might change your life', Observer'The kind of book you fall in love with - a grown-up novel that is hilarious, heartbreaking and brimming with the bitter-sweet tang of all our lives', Tony Parsons .'Allison Pearson is one of the stars of her generation', Evening Standard .'I can't think of a woman who wouldn't want this book', Guardian .'Her social observation is unerringly accurate...Pearson is unafraid of dealing with the big stuff...so beautifully written that it brought tears to my eyes, as well as a wry smile', Telegraph .'Pearson is a very witty and moving writer. Her prose is spare and skilful, spiked with ingenious similes, waspish truisms and spot-on social observations', Daily Express
