Book description
When Jilly Cooper, then a young Sunday Times journalist, was
asked to write a book on marriage, she had been married to Leo Cooper
for a mere seven years. Now they are celebrating their Golden Wedding,
and although the institution of marriage has changed a great deal
since this book was first written, much of Jilly's advice - frank,
fearless, often hilarious, but always wise - still holds good.
From the wedding and the honeymoon to life afterwards, including how
to deal with the in-laws and how to tell if you spouse is having an
affair, she dispenses anecdotes, jokes, common sense and endless
optimism and fun.
Jilly Cooper is a journalist, author and media superstar. The
author of many number one bestselling novels, she lives in
Gloucestershire with her husband Leo, her rescue greyhounds Feather
and Bluebell and her black cat Feral.
She was appointed OBE in 2004 for services to literature, and in
2009 was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Letters by the University of
Gloucestershire for her contribution to literature and services to the County.
