In her collection of humorous columns, award-winning writer Giselle Willcox offers readers a wonderful collation of three years of a celebrated back-page column with a South African favourite, Living and Loving.
Set against the backdrop of modern South African life, Giselle, with the sassy combination of wit and wisdom, faces motherhood one gosh-awful day at a time, touching on everything from nappies to no sleep, from parties to potty-training in a way that is both entertaining and endearing. three offers moms convincing consolation – that if they are in fact insane, they are not alone.
Giselle is right there with them.

“Giselle uses humour and playfulness to make astute observations about life, family, the
world and parenthood. In bite-size pieces, her view of the world we share will lighten – and enlighten – your day. A must-read!” – Dr Graeme Codrington, business strategy consultant and author
