Halima Khatun

Two kids under three. A move back home. A stagnant career and life in the sandwich generation. Welcome to my world as a Bengali millennial woman. Life has changed beyond recognition. I've got two kids, no sleep and I've moved back near my parents (and in-laws). Honestly, I'm struggling with this new normal. As I wade through the sea of nappies, anxiety and self-doubt, I wonder, will I ever get my life back?Join Helena in the latest chapter of the award-winning Secret Diary of a Bengali Woman series, as she navigates small children, ageing parents, a career gap and cultural expectations.
This diverse romcom explores, race, identity, belonging and womanhood in a way only Halima Khatun knows how.
