A cheeky, witty, well-informed and provocative look at an age-old institution that is (supposedly) one of the building blocks of modern society; this book is a light-hearted look at our intended destination. But buried in a shallow grave under the humorous text are deeply dark undertones that seem to make an awful lot of sense. Marriage: is it worth it? Is it necessary? Is it outdated? Is it just another item on the shopping list of life? This book will touch you whether you’re ‘a true romantic’ or ‘an intolerable cynic’, and should leave you with a big smile on your face, or at the very least, a rather worried grin.
