Modern marriage and how to bear it

This work examines contemporary marital discontent, surveying social attitudes, literary debates, and legal and psychological factors that shape conjugal relations. It outlines signs of unrest between the sexes, critiques romantic and legal conventions, traces changing public discourse, and discusses causes of mutual dissatisfaction. Combining reportage, cultural commentary, and practical counsel, it addresses courtship, household dynamics, sexual expectations, and proposals for adjustment and reform, aiming to help couples navigate misunderstandings and renegotiate roles. Chapters alternate analysis of public opinion with prescriptive advice for individuals and families, stressing frankness, self-awareness, and social reform as remedies for recurring domestic strains.
