Bridges Of The Madison County
(Robert James Waller)
Perhaps no other books glorifies an extra marital affair the way this one does. It changed my very notion about marriage and fidelity. The obvious reaction one has towards an extra marital relation is that of scorn and quick judgement. But what if the persons erring seem to have been made for each other. What if the kind of love they experience is so all- encompassing that it validates as well as negates all rule books. Isn?t love all about magic and rainbows and romance? If yes then is a boring, mundane existence in the confines of a home (something that most non working married women experience) can truly be called love? And if a visitor comes by who is the personification of all your adolescent dreams and completely sweeps you off your feet, then, is giving in, an act of infidelity? Or a gratification of all that you stand for and yearn.
This book spins magic and a spellbinding aura that makes us believe in the true pursuit of love, no matter in what form or manner it comes by. The poignant tale of a beautiful but disillusioned farm housewife Francesca and the national Geographic photographer Robert Kincaid who comes looking for bridges in the Madison county and how these two seemingly different individuals come together in a bond that defies all barriers, restraints and traditions. Based on a true story, the author succeeds brilliantly in being honest to the heart wrenching facts yet lending it the indefinable quality of a historical romance. A must read for all lovers of romance in its purest form. A short book that can be finished in one or two seating. So if you have a weekend alone at home, while your spouse is away on a business trip, read on with a glass of wine. This is the closest you can get to an extra marital affair with no strings attached. And I mean it in the best possible way.
