Motherhood is supposedly akin\n to sainthood—a blissful, happy mother looking adoringly at her smiley, chirpy\n baby. And not a cocktail in sight. But the Flaky Mummy pulls the truth out\n from under the carpet—in a world full of dirty diapers, the only salvation is\n a chilled cocktail! This book is about the journey of six mothers with their\n quirky parenting styles: A Punjabi mother stuck in the perils of a joint\n family while trying to bring her child up; A tiger mother clawing her child’s\n path to the top; A fad-loving disaster of a mother hopping from one\n ‘parenting method’ to the other; A lost NRI who makes her way back to her\n ‘roots’; A modern socialite with her new must-have accessory of the season—a\n baby; A menopausal woman hitting ‘jackpot’ with her last egg. Filled with\n hilarious tips and interesting observations, the Flaky Mummy is a witty\n satire on motherhood, which raises a toast to all the mothers out there\n struggling, surviving and succeeding at everything life throws their\n way--with a bit of assistance from their favourite tipple.
