At the age of 20 Nina Stibbe moved from Leicestershire to London to become a nanny. Later she studied at Thames Polytechnic and worked in publishing. She now lives in Cornwall with her partner and children.
In the 1980s Nina Stibbe wrote letters home to her sister in Leicester describing her trials and triumphs as a nanny to a London family. There's a cat nobody likes, a visiting dog called Ted Hughes (Ted for short) and suppertime visits from a local playwright. Not to mention the two boys, their favourite football teams, and rude words, a very broad-minded mother and assorted nice chairs.
From the mystery of the unpaid milk bill and the avoidance of nuclear war to mealtime discussions on pie filler, the greats of English literature, swearing in German and sexually transmitted diseases, Love, Nina is a wonderful celebration of bad food, good company and the relative merits of Thomas Hardy and Enid Blyton.

評分Nina看待生活的視角很有趣。她和Sam&Will兩個小正太的聊天內容天馬行空,Mary Kay對她雖然會調侃吐槽,但也給瞭20歲的她不少生活學習的點撥。Nina信中那個80年代的倫敦非常明媚可親,看完之後心情很好~如果閑來無事,隨手翻兩篇她的信都可能會笑吧
