β¦ Synopsis
Delightfully smart and heartbreakingly poignant, Allison Pearsonβs smash debut novel has exploded onto bestseller lists as βThe national anthem for working mothers.β Hedge-fund manager, wife, and mother of two, Kate Reddy manages to juggle nine currencies in five time zones and keep in step with the Teletubbies. But when she finds herself awake at 1:37 a.m. in a panic over the need to produce a homemade pie for her daughterβs school, she has to admit her life has become unrecognizable. With panache, wisdom, and uproarious wit, I Donβt Know How She Does It brilliantly dramatizes the dilemma of every working mom.From the Trade Paperback edition.
