"Bubbles" isn't just an entertaining book full of effervescent humour (which it most certainly is). It is also the story of a woman of great courage. who brushed aside family tragedies, the displacement of Partition, a disrupted education, and difficult personal choices, to choose happiness and joy in every day moments, motivated by her fierce love for family and friends. Her weapon of choice was a sparklingly brilliant dry humour that we get a glimpse of in her letters and that clearly drew so many people of all ages to seek her company. Narrated by her greatest fan, her daughter, "Bubbles" brings back to life the loving and spirited Charlotte that her family and friends adored.
