Things Your Mother Never Told You

Things Your Mother Never Told You

by Marion Mc Gilvary (Author)

Synopsis

Everyone who has reached anything approaching adulthood knows that life is full of things your mother never told you, like don't borrow other women's husbands, even if you do intend to give them back later. Or why your underwear should not only be clean but also co-ordinated and preferably French. From classic dilemmas to the downright embarrassing, Marion MacGilvary tackles the problems to modern living. Friendships, dieting, dating, being 30, being 40, holidays, failure, family, children, good sex, bad sex - with scurrilous anecdote, humorous illustrations, and home truths she strips away the facade of rectitude and proper conduct to reveal the hilarious state of chaos beneath.
