After her best-selling successes, “Ich hatte mich jünger in Erinnerung” and “Ich will so bleiben, wie ich war” which addressed getting older, Monika Bittl is now examining partner relationships. In her wonderfully entertaining stories of daily life, she illustrates both the loveable and the absurd sides of married life. She investigates the question of whether the most common reason for divorce is an affair or rather the partner’s dirty socks that are always lying around, and searches for a recipe for a long and fulfilling marriage.
