Journey through Dr. Rilly Ray Rajkumars biographical account of the life of a young woman named Rilly, born in Darjeeling, India, and raised in a Bengali home during the 1940s. She watched her mother, a previously docile, fearful woman, overcome her fear, convincing her husband that the family needed to migrate to Malaya for the sake of their children.

This work tells of Rilly's persistence and dedication in pursing an education, becoming a medical doctor like her father, all the while fighting against the suppression of women, cultural traditions such as arranged marriages, and the freedom of religious choice. And, like mother, like daughter, this requires another move to Singapore.

To quote the author, "I realized that the pains my mother went through in her life urged me to write this book. I wanted the world to know what a simple woman can achieve by her sacrifices."

Pretty funny
Format: Hardcover
The book gives us a more focused outlook on Chieg Wiggum. Full of its funny moments, I`d recomend this to huge Simpsons fans as it seems the shows writers managed to give us another hit.

Not the best, but not the worst either
Format: Hardcover
By any means not the funniest book in the series, only the one on Krusty the Clown was more un-funny; but still a worthy addition to your collection and, just like all the others from the series providing a retrospective of anecdotes you might have forgotten.
