"Cheerful Weather for the Wedding"
This book may have been a precursor to the popular film "Four Weddings and a Funeral." English Literature can capture wedding stress so well! Here, Julia Strachey (1901-79) writes "about a girl on her wedding morning ...trying to stifle her doubts and dull her knowledge that she is making a frightful mistake...." Strachey was a young member of the Bloomsbury group of British writers and artists. She the neice of author Lytton Strachey.
"It is a book full of the funniness of painful situations, of the sort of humour which enables us to look back with laughter at the things which hurt us most in life."
