Mum Interrupted: Postcards from a Perfect Life ebook

You built the life you were meant to want.

So why aren’t you happy?

Mum Interrupted: Postcards from a Perfect Life is a literary memoir about identity, belonging, and the invisible cost of fitting in.

From a Tokyo modelling agency at seventeen to the world of global finance, the expatriate hierarchies of Dubai, the luxury ecosystems of Monaco, and the polished restraint of London, it traces a life shaped by movement, adaptation, and the accumulation of moments across cities and roles.

This is a world of polished surfaces and unspoken rules, where ambition disguises itself as discipline, beauty becomes currency, and status is a language everyone pretends not to speak. Wealth shapes the rules, but rarely explains them.

A life that works and a self that no longer fully does. The postcard never shows the person holding the camera.

Luxury is easy. Belonging is not.
