Textul de pe ultima copertă

It seems that more than one of every two marriages in the United States will end up in divorce. As the number of previously married men increases so does the number of women faced with becoming second wives. Susan Shaprio Barash offers valuable advice in this timely guide to being a second wife. Twice a second wife, Barash was stunned by the lack of literature on this all too common scenario. Though a plentitude of books are written on marriage and relationships, none present the unique perspective of a second wife mixing interviews from more than 100 second wives with insights from noted psychologists.

This book explores the predicament, dilemma, fortitude and optimism of the second wife. Salient advice is offered to the woman faced with competing against the ex-wife for the husband's love and attention, with pleasing her new step-children and in-laws, striving to overcome the shadow of a lost love and coping in all aspects of the role she now plays as second wife. The conclusion discusses how, as we enter a new millenium, women have established a way to prevail as second wives, with strength, humor, success and generosity of spirit. Above all else, Second Wives provides women with a vehicle for identifying with other second wives and to glean knowledge from the expert advice presented to them. This book will offer both partners in a second marriage the opportunity to better understand and communicate with one another.
