The Book
"Marriage isn't a fairy tale. It's a masterpiece in progress."
Most marriage books are written for couples in crisis. The Marriage Club is for the millions of couples whose relationship isn't broken — but isn't quite what it could be either. Dr. Gustav Juul and Ana Arias share the practical frameworks they use with real couples: how to read your partner's character, why every marriage moves through six predictable stages, how to spot the seven sources of every fight before it starts, and the eight rules of a real conversation.
