It's ironic that I would choose to read a book about lasting marriages, when I am no longer in a current relationship. However, this book intrigued me, as having been married for over 30 years, I sought to find out the secret to lasting marriages of celebrated couples. Were they happily married, or were they living together in toleration of each other? I'm not sure that I found the true answer to that question, but I did notice that most of the couples faced obstacles that interfered in their marriages, and they sought some kind of counselor or therapist from which to help resolve the issues. Honest, empathetic communication seemed to foster a resolution to many of the issues they encountered. From the stories presented, it was easy to recognize that a great deal of effort was extended by both partners to make these marriages work. Aside from those similarities, each relationship had its fine nuances and personal idiosyncrasies to make the couples' lives unique and interesting. (

This was an interesting read even though I'm not married and do not intend to be. It was still interesting to hear from and about other couples I know in ways other than their marriage. (
