On this podcast, Simon Lim puts the spotlight on Sunita Sue Leng, author of "The Unlikely Motherhood of Shaleni May". The protagonist in Sunita's debut novel is Shaleni who becomes a mum for the first time - in her 40s.
The novel is funny, insightful, heartwarming and vivid. You may resonate with the character Shaleni who makes unconventional life choices, juggles domesticity with career, and grapples with changing family dynamics. Ageism, being a parenthood later in life and the dichotomy of reminiscing about how good things were in the past versus embracing the superficiality of digital and the A.I. age are explored.
Sunita's novel delves into adoption for married couples and enlightens the reader, through the experiences of her protaganist Shaleni and Shaleni's husband Rico.
