This was a beautiful and psychologically well-informed journey through a Western marriage. Alain takes us beyond the happy ever after & into the flawed, frustrating, fragile commitment of forever. I have learnt so much and appreciated the need for acceptance, patience and grace in every kind of relationship all over again.
