About this Item

For Pia, regular life is a thing of the past. She is now an army wife. From just Pia to an aunty, a memsaab . . . and, her favourite words in the whole wide world, Mrs Pia Arjun Mehra. Pia finds herself having to suddenly be more lady-like , focus on themed ladies meets, high teas and welfare functions, and deal with long (unexpected) spells of separation from her husband. She faces extraordinary challenges, a little heartache and, well, army-life lessons. In the mysterious and grand world of army wives, Pia learns that walking in high heels is okay as long as you don t trip on combat boots. She learns that civil is also a noun, that JCO and GOC are (very) different from each other, that snacks are shown and WTF is better explained as Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Yes, it really is a new world. This quirky, hilarious story of the first year of Pia s life as an army wife will show you that the spice to a soldier s life is most definitely his better, very strong, extremely elegant, never-cussing, witty, warm and passionate half-his army wife.
