A funny, irreverent, tongue-in-cheek look at the maid-memsahib relationship on the cusp of social change: the horrifying prospect of being wholly dependent on those we employ; the terrifying notion that maids are a dying breed; and the spectre of surviving in a world without them!
Payal Kapadia’s debut novella, Wisha Wozzariter, won the Crossword Award for Children’s Writing in 2013 and is on the “101 Indian Children’s Books We Love!” list. She also wrote B.R. Ambedkar: Saviour of the Masses, a biography for children in 2014. Horrid High, an exciting two-book series for older kids, has been very well-received and extensively reviewed as well. Payal has a degree in Journalism from Northwestern University in Chicago. She has worked with Outlook in Bombay and The Japan Times in Tokyo.
