Description

In Housewife Superstar, Danielle Wood introduced us to the life (three husbands, Campbell Town and Devonport dream homes, inspiration for Dame Edna Everage) and work (countless writings, prizes, cakes, and things knitted, crocheted, sewed) of Mrs Marjorie Bligh: domestic goddess, original recessionista, and all-round force of nature.

The follow-up, HOME, collects the finest Marjorie moments in hints, advice, recipes, poems, gardening, and travel, all reproduced as facsimile pages from her many famed self-published books — and with new photographs, celebrity appearances, and a special foreword by the great lady, now ninety-five, herself.

If you have yet to discover the wonder that is Marjorie Bligh, waste no more time — for, as she says, time is 'the greatest gift you have'.
