The country of marriage - Anthony Giardina

The many embarrassments of the married man - a Madame Bovary for males.

- Want to know what is really going on in your husband's head? Want to know what his real desires and discontents, never voiced, are? Then here is a user's manual for wives.
- Marriage is a foreign land. Those who visit are always altered, often disoriented and occasionally shattered by the experience.
- Many men, bedded down firmly into the wedded state, find themselves in a curious, cosy emotional paralysis - this book describes that paralysis, and married men's inability to act.
- Psychologically acute, excruciatingly accurate, bewitchingly well written.
- The best debut of the season.
