Speed Post (Paperback)

The relationship between a mother and her children is unquestionably the most special human bond there is. In this book, best-selling author Shobha De writes a series of letters to her six children on the key concerns of every mother and child in the 21st century: family values and tradition; growing pains and adolescent anxieties about love, sex and friendship; religion and God; and the challenge of being a responsible parent. Rich, compassionate, witty and wise, these letters will touch the hearts of readers everywhere.About the Author The obsessive-compulsive writer of fifteen books, Shobhaa Dé has spent the last three years in the pursuit of her first vocation, journalism.
