The Husbands and Wives Club: A Year in the Life of a Couples Therapy Group by Laurie Abraham

theartolater's review against another edition

4.0

A book that chronicles a year of couple’s therapy with some couples out of Pennsylvania. Really, really interesting look into therapy and couples problems, and made me realize, yet again, how lucky I am to have a wife like Ann. So very, very lucky. A good read for sure, one of those books that gives a great look into something you think very little about.

I enjoyed this voyeuristic look into other people's marriages. The book, however, could have used a good editor. A more clear narration and thread, better portraits of people so they didn't blend together as much. And fewer judgemental descriptions of the voices ("he bleated", "she whined", etc). Overall, it was good and i did learn some things.
