When
Jilly Cooper
was first asked to write a book about marriage in 1969, she’d been wed to her husband, Leo, for just seven years — and was already full of sharp, funny, and refreshingly honest opinions on the subject.
Though the world has changed since then, much of Jilly’s advice — frank, fearless, often hilarious, yet always full of warmth and wisdom — remains as relevant as ever.
From weddings and honeymoons to in-laws, affairs, and the art of staying cheerful through it all, she shares her trademark mix of anecdotes, wit, and optimism about the ups and downs of life together.
Whether you’re thinking about getting married, already living together, or have been happily hitched for decades,
How to Stay Married
is a joyful, laugh-out-loud companion for anyone navigating love’s long game.
