About this book

Helen Ellis writes comic personal essays about domestic habits, marriage and the polite language used to disguise less flattering truths. In the opening essay, her husband's request for a clean dining table provokes an outsized response and advice from her mother. The collection draws humor from the friction between self-image, household expectations and the accommodations of married life.
