Wow, what an eye-opening experience this book was. The peek into the lives of the wives, nannies, and servants of another culture.  In California, particularly my house,  the idea of having a live in maid/chef/nanny is a dream many a new mother has, but then reality sets in and she moves on.  While some people might have a live in nanny to help with children when both parents work, since it's about the same or cheaper than full time daycare, we tend to treat them as members of the family.  This view of the position of a maid/nanny is very different.Each of the women in this story show a different side to the same story.  The story is told in a quasi-omniscient form so that we could see what two of the main character think and act.I found it an interesting look into the "help" in a new light.  I give this book 4 out of 5 clouds.This product or book may have been distributed for review; this in no way affects my opinions or reviews.
