The Pyramid Theory of Marriage

Tony Gulvin suggests that the long-term relationship faces possible extinction; powerless, in a much changed world, to resist the lure of serial monogamy, and its adherent's inherently charlatan claims to virtue. In this highly original and fascinating critique, Gulvin's seemingly unbreakable logic disturbs much of the complacency surrounding the modern relationship and argues a compelling case for a genuine re-articulation of the marital agreement. Engrossing, witty, challenging, and at times, uncomfortable: a must read for anyone seriously interested in having a happy, long-lasting and loving relationship.
