Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Rich with anecdotes, inspiration, and brass-tacks problem solving, The Lesbian and Gay Book of Love and Marriage chronicles the emotional and political heart of gay commitment. Weaving together interviews with lesbian and gay couples and singles with the expert observations and personal testimonies of gay figures such as Candace Gingrich, Craig Lucas, Gabriel Rotello, and Cris Williamson, Paula Martinac takes you on a journey through the milestones and turning points, the joys and the struggles of gay relationships.

  • Meeting Mr. or Ms. Right: The challenges and excitement of searching for--and finding--the "one"
  • Seriouser and Seriouser: Taking your relationship to the next level--living together, popping the question, coming out to friends and coworkers
  • I Do! I Do!: From public ceremonies to private commitments--the many ways same-sex couples take their vows
  • For Better or Worse: The complexity of married life--in-laws, money matters, building a home, divorce, and widowhood
  • The Family Way: Creating your own family without a blueprint--families of choice, blended families, adopting and raising children
