Varför hörs någon vråla SÅÅÅ HÄÄÄR HAAAR INTEEE MARIIIAAAANNE FREDRIKSSOOON DEEEEEET i det lilla vita huset i Bromma? Hur kommer det sig att Björn Skifs har blivit yngre än Martina Haag? Och varför ser hon ut som en smurf i pösbyxor? Och vad gör hon egentligen, instängd i en hiss med Viggo Mortensen på en lyxig björnfäll? Varför piper, mjauar och brölar det ur frysen i källaren? Och kommer verkligen Hans Blix att kunna reda ut bråken hemma hos familjen Haag?

Hemma hos Martina handlar om hur Martina försöker få livet att gå ihop med tre barn, en miljard katter och Sveriges stökigaste man som bara snor ens strumpor hela tiden och en skådespelarkarriär vars höjdpunkter mest verkar bestå av provfilmningar för finskt diskmedel. Den handlar också om hur man försöker överleva trots att man lider av en ofantlig brist på glamour när man är gravid i tionde månaden och ser ut som Lennart Swahn (fast med hårspännen).

Надежду Лохвицкую (1872–1952), известную всем под псевдонимом Тэффи, современники называли "королевой юмора". Ею восхищались от Николая II до Ленина, а ее веселые ироничные рассказы и фельетоны с остроумными наблюдениями над жизнью и нотками грусти очень высоко ценили. Пережив три революции, две мировые войны, оказавшись в 1920-е годы в эмиграции, она сохранила в "короткой прозе" непосредственность, легкость и умение посмеяться над обычными бытовыми ситуациями, а в свои мемуары привнесла философский характер. В русском Париже Тэффи была одним из любимых писателей.
