This book is a touching and playful insight into the life of a woman who has donned many hats. From a daughter to a teacher, to a Masi, friend, adviser and the owner of a business, it sums up the multitudinous flood of memories that lie within waiting to be expressed over a life spanning 70 years.
Expectedly, it throws up a lot of joy, a lot of sorrow, some anecdotes from the past, experiences shared with friends and pride in the achievements of family and students. The book written in Vignette-form delivers exactly what it says, random memories not necessarily in chronological order and it aims to give an insight into a life ordinary, but hugely enjoyable, lived her way.
