Review of Love and Marriage
Do you keep hitting brick walls in your dating relationship? Does your marriage appear to be heading toward the path of doom? Well, fret no longer. In Arthur Hartz's Love and Marriage, he identifies and addresses many of the underlying issues that suffocate happy relationships.
This book contains two sections dedicated to dating and marriage, respectively. The author dives straight into the main issues encountered in the dating pool and discusses how to identify what one wants and what it takes to get it. He posits the roles each gender is to play as agreed unanimously in society and gives readers a way to rigmarole through the game pool when they do not appear to be up to social requirements. These were covered under four topics. The author then dedicates Section Two to marriage calamities and tears the veil from the reader's eyes in identifying the path they take in scattering their union. The author takes no prisoners in his tirade and extensively captures the average marriage crisis in comics, with underwritings of how to flip the situation. Read up, as this book satirically exposes the shortcomings of partners and the best path to any fruitful love interest.
Arthur Hartz is quite a dynamic writer. He employs both words and images to pass his message clearly and distinctly. The author composed this book in simple language with a sprinkle of satire, giving it a unique flavor in delivery. The author sometimes wrote notes under images for further buttress, and I cherished one of them so much that I would like to share. It states, 'sometimes we need the most love when we are least loveable.'
I like this quote because it highlights the underground decay that tips a relationship over the edge, just like the author duly explained. These days, no one wants to suffer with anybody through the good and bad days. There is the inclination to appear when it's good and disappear when things get awry. This issue doesn't just occur in a dating relationship but also in marriage. For instance, in one of the images in this book, a man came in to see his wife having an emotional meltdown and indirectly stated that it's best to have no idea what is happening. We want to be associated with people when the times are good and stay off the grid when they are not. This constitutes the central problem of love and relationships. I was intrigued by the author's breakdown in the chapter titled 'Support or Lack Thereof.' He effectively broke down marriage into caring for and doing for with suitable examples. He defined, measured the discrepancies, and gave his opinion about the presence and absence of the two concepts in marriage. This is another excellent point from this book and is very relevant for these times when everyone wants to be a receiver without doing anything.
This book is astoundingly illustrious and potentially profound. However, I have one problem with it. The author made subjective claims, which could be misleading. For instance, in a descriptive image, he implied that ladies move toward men that take risks more than generally reliable men. These statements could be testy. Aside from this, there is nothing I dislike in the book.
This book is exceptionally well edited, as I found no errors in it. It also has an excellent level of articulation that makes it very understandable. Therefore, I rate Love and Marriage 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this book to individuals ready to spark the fire of their love relationship again.
