Dear Mariella ...

HELP! is guaranteed to bring relief. It is an airing cupboard for the complexities of modern life. A place to gather together the dilemmas that define twenty-first-century living, hang them out and then scrutinize them from all angles. Other people's dilemmas have much to tell us about our own lives, and this collection of quandaries from Mariella Frostrup - approachable in her own (self-proclaimed) imperfection - may not solve your problems but it will undoubtedly make you think, and certainly make you laugh.
