Product Overview
PORTRAIT OF A MARRIAGE is an eloquent examination of the possibilities of a marriage. The story of Harold Nicolson and Vita Sackville-West as told by their son, Nigel, it illuminates the intimate mechanics of a marriage in which each partner lives his or her own independent life, but to which each returns as a ship to its homeport. The reader is allowed to see clearly into the complex and wonderful world of two unusual people in love. Here, in an amazingly timely fashion, the idea of love being subject to logic or laws dissolves. Whether you are interested in these two talented people or simply looking for a good romance, this is a book to enjoy.
Nicolson makes telling the truth about relationships seem so easy and natural, as if all anyone has to do to tell a good love story is to step out of the way. (Amazon.com)
