Funny, but Poignant and Relevant Today


(4 stars)

This may have been written in the early 1900's, and many women may balk at the traditional view of marriage. But I find these vignettes still have truths in them relevant to both men and women. There are points in these that I consciously try to avoid in my own marriage. The attitudes and actions that sabotage these marriages are prevalent today, and are still sabotaging not only marriages, but friendships and other relationships as well. A humorous yet poignant work. The reader is not a native English speaker, but she speaks clearly and is easy to understand. Her cadence is different than most English speakers, but the listener gets used to it. Technical quality is excellent.

Confusing


(0.5 stars)

I couldn’t tell if the book was being read, paraphrased, or the reader was just telling the story. It was choppy reading and very slow. I had to speed up 1.4 to get it to sound flowing. The book itself was not humorous. The writer would tell of husbands that worked, went out of their way for the wife, and the wife was the one that got sympathy for her laziness, selfishness, and conniving ways. I would not waste your time listening to this book.
