Household Baggage is an entertaining collection of funny, poignant, and disarmingly candid essays written by Marna Krajeski, an Army wife of 20 years and mother of two children. Krajeski's lively prose targets the spectrum of challenges confronting today's military family, where marriage and motherhood endure significant tests from frequent moves, long separations, uncomfortable living quarters, and wartime deployments.
Household Baggage is perfect for the military spouse who functions in the vast gray area between surviving and thriving, and who always welcomes an extended hand, a sympathetic ear, and, especially, comic relief. Brides new to the service will find the light-hearted insights helpful, the more serious issues invaluable. Seasoned military wives will appreciate the common-ground experiences that unite them.
