Marilyn Yalom examines the history of marriage "from a woman's perspective." The book's heroines include wives of ancient Greece and Rome, Catholics and Protestants, and wives of the Frontier and World War II. It tells stories of women who suffered from the cruelty of society and their own husbands, of those for whom marriage became a desired happiness, and of those who successfully fought against injustice. This journey through the history of wives concludes with our era, when marriage, no longer an obligation, is undergoing profound changes. Marilyn Yalom is a historian and a fellow at the Michelle Kleiman Institute for Gender Studies at Stanford.
