Description

About the book :

Apart from being sparklingly witty, Battle Hymn of a Bewildered Mother is also an honest confession of a young independent woman of today who unabashedly shares her journey from being a connoisseur of ‘La Dolce Vita’ to the hits and misses of motherhood.

- PRIYANKA CHOPRA

As much with life, parenting in the new millennium does not come with an instruction manual. If you happen to be a girl about town, a super successful career woman, a must-live-each-day-as-it-comes kind of person, impending motherhood can be as imposing as a trip to outer space without an oxygen mask.

Welcome to the opposite of everything you know. Shunali Khullar Shroff in Battle Hymn of a Bewildered Mother begins her journey as someone chronically devoid of what is naturally termed as the maternal instinct. But in spite of her misgivings, she eventually realizes there is nothing else she’d rather be doing than burping her babies while avoiding all traces of tranquilizers. This brilliant, whimsical, bumpy tale of everyday madness has a voice of a mother both honest and hilarious.

From exchanging her corporate suits for mess-retardant mommy wear, from balancing work clients to battling two girls’ questions and demands, this book is a journey of a mother constantly walking on thin ice over the Bermuda Triangle. Based on the principles of lunacy and humour, Shunali Khullar Shroff reveals the realities of a parent in today’s ultramodern, supersonic, and chaotic world.

About the Author :

Shunali Khullar Shroff has worked variously as a journalist, a corporate communications professional, and the owner of a successful PR firm. That, however, was in another incarnation.

As soon as the storks visited her, she plunged into motherhood with the trepidation of a reluctant air diver about to take her first leap of faith. An eternal optimist, she mistakenly assumed that she could retire to being a lady of leisure once the kids were out of their diapers. But she soon realized that motherhood doesn’t last a couple of years. It lasts a lifetime.

Ergo she took to writing a now widely read blog in order to hear herself think. Shunali lives in Mumbai with her husband, two daughters, a geriatric dog, and his juvenile companion.
