Deena Munger is middle-aged. She's housewife, mother, chief cook and bottle washer to her husband and three children. She's also invisible. This is a phenomenon which will be familiar to many middle-aged women: they exist, not as themselves, but only in relation to other people and specifically in respect of what they can do for others. They're assumed to have no feelings, no needs and to be constantly available.
