The Wife Drought

Working women face a chronic wife drought, with home support often treated as a private advantage rather than a shared social norm. Set against work, family, politics, and media, the book looks at why the pressures of domestic life still fall so unevenly.

Written in a candid and funny style, it will appeal to readers interested in gender, work, and modern family life. Historical detail and research sit alongside personal observations, giving the subject both context and bite while keeping the tone readable and direct.
