Young Wives Tales: New Adventures in Love and Partnership
Editors: Jill Corral and Lisa Miya-Jervis Published: 6.01.2001
“In this book of essays feminists relate their struggle to create modern partnerships with their loved one(s). There are essays on lesbian marriage, mixed ethnicity partnerships, cohabitation, the decision to have a childless marriage, how housework is shared, and what to do about last names - all narrating how a couple has negotiated their relationship to make it work. This is a look at modern partnerships that takes the old-fashioned trappings and myths and gently dismantles them with honesty and intelligence.”
