Just after DD was born, when my head was fuggy from lack of sleep, I read a novel that I'd like to look at again but I've lost it and can't remember the title or authors - it was written by two people, who might have been sisters.

It's a comic novel about motherhood, written entirely in emails sent between two very middle-class sisters, with a brood of about 7 or 8 children between them, and if I remember correctly, French parents or at least a French family home they visit in the summer. One of the sisters moved to Canada, one was in London.

Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!

Is it 'And God Created the Au Pair'?

By Benedicte Newland and Pascale Smets (just had to check up on their names). Yes, they are sisters in RL. They write a column in the Torygraph which I personally cannot stand! But that's by the by......Grin

Yes it is, thanks! Had no idea they wrote for the Torygraph.
