Mrs Funnybones (10th Anniversary Edition) by Twinkle Khanna [Hardcover]

Good morning, it's 6 a.m. and I am wide awake because the man of the house has decided that he needs to perform a series of complex maneuvers that involve him balancing on his left elbow. When I fell asleep last night, a baby was lying next to me. Her smelly diaper is still wedged on my head but aside from this rather damp clue, I can't seem to find her anywhere. I could ask my mother-in-law if she has seen the baby, but she may just tell me that I need to fast on alternate Mondays, and God will deliver the baby back to me . . .

Full of wit and delicious observations, Mrs Funnybones captures the life of the modern Indian woman who organizes dinner each evening, even as she goes to work all day, who runs her own life but has to listen to her Mummyji, who worries about her weight and the state of the country. Based on Twinkle Khanna's super-hit column, Mrs Funnybones marks the debut of one of our funniest, most original voices.
