Pronto aprenderá a hacer todo lo necesario para que la Señora X --que no trabaja ni dentro ni fuera de casa-- tenga un buen día. Y que Grayer, el niño, coma sólo alimentos orgánicos y se mantenga cuerdo en medio de esa loca familia. Y a acostumbrarse a que el Señor X la trate como si fuera invisible.

 The authors, NYU grads themselves, have filled the novel with humorous events allegedly based on their personal experiences.  "The Nanny Diaries" is a sharply barbed comedy of manners; the denizens of New York's Upper East Side (and, by extension, their brethren in all other tony, overpriced, deadly dull neighborhoods in cities around the world) are its target. With this hilarious, vicious satire of upper-class family life in Manhattan, McLaughlin and Kraus, ex-nannies who know of what they speak, position themselves as contempo Edith Whartons. Although The Nanny Diaries is screamingly funny, it's also painfully sad. A very effective combination. The heart of the matter remains perfectly pitched social satire, from the children's birthday parties (''We really had to put our heads together to top last year's overnight at Gracie Mansion'') to the kind of house where African, Venetian, Art Deco, Empire and Winnie-the-Pooh styles heedlessly collide.

What do you do when you are a nanny to an obscenely rich Park Avenue matron named X? Mrs. X refuses to do anything for herself, including cook, clean, or take care of her four-year-old son. You are expected to do everything, including maintaining the mental health of said four-year-old, even while Mrs. X decides that it is time for a divorce. You'll have to bear up under the strain with wit and panache, even as the boundaries between your working life and your so-called private life blur, merge, and disappear. The symbiotic relationship between parent and nanny ensures that your life will be spent anticipating and fulfilling the needs of your charge and your employer. Have fun listening!.
