Becoming pregnant at forty is, in itself, a difficult decision. But, when you add to this hormonal ups and downs of the emotional roller-coaster, an "adorable" husband who keeps calling you "fatty" every day, an adolescent son, a full time job where you have to demonstrate that having guts isn’t incompatible with being smart and some home helpers who need to be persuaded not to abandon you every day, then surviving the nine months intact could easily become a Mission Impossible.
In this hilarious novel, Marta Robles breaks the stereotypes of pregnancy, showing us how a woman in her forties can still have a lot of fight left within her.
