Marriage: Dead or Alive

Rating:
Summary: A Valentine
Review: I love this book! I'd love to give this book as a wedding gift at every wedding I attend, only newlyweds wouldn't get it, and it would only frighten them. This is a book for year ten, and even then it wouldn't be most folks' cup of tea. But I find great comfort in the idea that marriage is meant to be difficult (I was married in the Russian Orthodox Church and wore a "martyr's crown" as part of the ceremony), as well as the idea that marriage is one of the quickest paths to individuation for those rare souls who are up to the conscious challenge.
