Lob der Ehe

The ideal gift book for all the brave-hearted: now in a new edition! There are countless marriage guides, but none like this one: "In Praise of Marriage" showcases the full richness of a life together without the usual clichés and nonsense. Rafik Schami has sifted through the wheat and chaff and selected the most beautiful texts from world literature with an unerring expert eye. The result is - to the delight of all lovers, engaged couples, and married people - a multifaceted and enjoyable ode to love. "Love, what a lovely mist. But in marriage, that’s where the art lies," wrote Theodor Storm, and Eduard Mörike said: "Those without humor should not marry." Truly, it borders on a miracle to love a snoring, ill-tempered, distrustful, or overly sensitive being - year in, year out, of one’s own free will, without ifs and buts. What imagination it inspires!.
