At first glance, the job of a housewife seems rather dull. Cooking, cleaning, looking after children – nothing compared to, say, optical surgery or lion training. But housewifery certainly isn’t all it appears to be, as proved by Idlis to iPads – Tales of a Lifetime. The author, Mrs. Nirmala Ramaswamy, is an Indian homemaker who has traveled throughout the country, vanquished fearsome cobras with nothing but a window shutter, suffered through stuffy Air Force parties, and witnessed the dawn of the Technology Age. Idlis to iPads narrates every one of these experiences, as well as many others, in a quirky yet completely relatable tone.
So sit back, relax, and delve into the life of one remarkable housewife.
