Mit Liv På Et Fad af India Knight (Bog)

Mit liv pa et fad kunne vaere historien om, hvordan det gik Bridget Jones og hendes medsostre, da de endelig have faet Manden, Bornene og Huset. Det er ikke kun en dans pa (neu)roser. Men det er hysterisk morsomt!Knight, whose weekly London Sunday Times columns are filled with wry social commentary, has joined the Bridget Jones school of novelists. With less-than-perfect grace, our heroine, Clara Hutt, is dealing with the mini-traumas of married life, including juggling freelance writing and parenting. Beset with a domineering but oh-so-chic mother, ditzy stepsisters, befuddled friends, and a mostly absent husband, Clara worries about her weight, the slide of her wardrobe from elegance to comfort, marital infidelity, and recovering from a disastrous interview in which she managed not only to insult an up-and-coming dance star but also to give him head lice. Despite her self-doubts, Clara proves to have sufficient resiliency to deal with the end of her marriage and the beginning of a new relationship. The witty commentary on middle-class mores and humor make this slight novel an enjoyable read and saves it from being simply a clone. Recommended for public libraries. DJan Blodgett, Davidson Coll.
