Summary "Modern Marriage and How to Bear It" by Maud Churton Braby is a sociological exploration written in the late 19th century. The book critically examines the institution of marriage, highlighting the growing dissatisfaction between the sexes and questioning societal norms surrounding wedlock. Through a frank discussion, Braby delves into the causes of marital unrest, reasons why both men and women hesitate to marry, and the challenges faced within the marital bond. At the start of the book, the author introduces the concept of widespread discontent with marriage, noting how it has become a contentious topic in society. She references influential thinkers like Tolstoy and George Meredith to underscore her argument that traditional marriage is increasingly viewed as outdated or flawed. The opening sets the stage for her examination of societal expectations, the psychological dynamics between partners, and the various types of marriages, indicating that the author will explore the complexities and evolving ideas surrounding modern marriage in greater depth throughout the text.
