UNFINISHED MARRIAGE, AN(ISBN=9780767908719) 英文原版 fb2 pdf azw3 网盘 rtf 免费 下载 txt

In this moving sequel to her national bestseller A Year by

the Sea, Joan Anderson explores the challenges of rebuilding

and renewing a marriage with her trademark candor, compassion, and

insight.

With A Year by the Sea, Joan Anderson struck a chord in many

tens of thousands of readers. Her brave decision to take a year for

herself away from her marriage, her frank assessment of herself at

midlife, and her openness in sharing her fears as well as her

triumphs won her admirers and inspired women across the country to

reconsider their options. In this new book, Anderson does for

marriage what she did for women at midlife. Using the same very

personal approach, she shows us her own rocky path to renewing a

marriage gone stale, satisfying the demand from readers and

reviewers to learn what comes next.

When Joan and her husband Robin decided to repair and renew their

marriage after her eye-opening year of self-discovery, the outcome

was far from certain. He had suddenly decided to retire and move to

Cape Cod himself and embark on his own journey of midlife

reinvention. After the initial shock of incorporating another

person back into Joan’s daily life and her treasured cottage, they

begin the process of "recycling"–using the original materials of

their marriage to create a new partnership. Rereading the letters

that she had written from Uganda during the early years of their

marriage, she is reminded about the nervousness and joy with which

she began their life together. Her sudden incapacitation with a

broken ankle reveals an unexpected resourceful and tender side in

her husband. A grimly comic and strained dinner party with three

other couples reveals to both Joan and Robin some of the emotional

pitfalls (and horrors) that can befall married couples.

In her year of solitude by the sea, Anderson learned that "there is

no greater calling than to make a new creation out of the old

self." In An Unfinished Marriage, she charts the new journey

that she and her husband have begun together, seasoned by their

years of marriage but newly awakened to the possibilities of their

future together. A unique, tremendously moving and insightful entry

into the literature of marriage, it will provide salutary shocks of

recognition and fresh hope for all women and men negotiating their

own marital passages.
