Summary
Pamela Haag: Marriage Strictly Confidential
An exciting read that reveals the secrets of marriage and questions common prejudices, attitudes and misconceptions about marriage! Pamela Haag's marriage time machine provides us with a broad view of marriage and marital relations from the 19th century onwards. By combining professional knowledge, own experience and numerous confessions of friends with sharp, but also supportive comments of her husband, she reveals to us: Are we conditioned by certain circumstances or do we have a choice? Are our attitudes about marriage shaped by family heritage, the spirit of the times, or do we have a private scale of romantic criteria that we set and fulfill? Are passion and excitement more important to us or the security of a "peaceful marriage"? Facebook and Google instead of going to the cinema or going for a walk? Swinging, polyamory and open marriage instead of "together until death do us part"? What are the sweet secrets and magical points where passion, love, excitement, obligations, habits, anger, elation mix - where are the points where everyday life pulsates most intensely? My first goal in this book is to express... a desire, to describe a melancholy marriage with a modicum of conflict, and to show the millions of us in split marriages that we are not alone. I want to provide comforting moments of self-recognition and satisfy curiosity about the secret life of these marriages by introducing you to them. The marriage of anonymous people is a hidden institution, even in our age that despises privacy. Its failures, as well as twisted, improvised re-releases, are too often hidden from view. My goal is to lift the curtain and make a collective portrait of those marriages - how we find ourselves in them, which decisions lead us to boredom. This book tacitly contradicts the words of Leo Tolstoy: perhaps all unhappy marriages are not unhappy in their own, unique ways; perhaps many of them are unhappy because of the common choices, attitudes and sensibilities of our time.
*The book has a dedication from the previous owners.
