Woman's Work: Is There Life After Birth?

Sylvia Mulholland

4.9/5 (19653 ratings)

Description:Kali Miller hasn't even given birth to her first baby, Harry, when her doctor-husband Matt 'helpfully' hires a live-in nanny, one afternoon while Kali is out shopping for eco-friendly diapers. The beguiling Britta Edvardsson is svelte, blonde and Swedish enough to make any new mother insecure, especially one who looks and feels as ginormous post-delivery as she did before the baby was born. And Matt, from his glory days as a hockey hero in Sweden, knows more than a bit of conversational Swedish. As time goes on, Kali begins to suspect that he and Britta share some sort of past - or is Kali just hormonally overloaded and emotionally unbalanced from trying to 'do it all'? She can't seem to find the answer in her 'Swedish in Minutes!' phrase book. Still, a live-in nanny means Kali can go back to work as an attorney and continue to claw her way to partnership in Biltmore, Durham & Spears. The Millers' cozy little seaside house will be nice and clean, all meals prepared, and little Harry well cared for, right? But Britta's idea of cooking turns out to be 'fiskpinnar' (fish sticks) warmed in the microwave; she leaves blonde hairballs between the sofa cushions, has turned her bedroom into a disaster zone that not even a teenage girl would enter, and has cute, broken English convos with Matt, usually ignoring Kali altogether. The only thing Britta has in common with those 'super-nannies' that all of Kali's professional women friends seem to have, is that she'll probably never quit! And of course, Harry adores his lovely young nanny, so how could Kali possibly dream of letting her go? As the pace of Kali's life becomes increasingly frantic, she finds herself reeling: sleepless and exhausted, with a law practice, marriage, and even the Millers' house, sliding hopelessly out of control. And then there is her client from hell, determined to get revenge for a deal gone south that he blames on Kali. Her family is no help either: older sister, Sofia, is delighted to fan the flames of Kali's paranoia about Matt and Britta, and Kali's mom is a winged-out old hippie from The Haight. As for Kali's hopes for a law partnership, the top brass at Biltmore, Durham & Spears are starting to question her competence and dedication to her career, viewing her more as a potential liability, than as partnership material. It's certainly seems to be true that woman's work is never done. But just sort of work is it, anyway?We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
