Heated Discussion on A Temporary New Wife a Contemporary Novel by Malcolm...

May 31, 2005 -- A Temporary New Wife, a contemporary novel by Malcolm Goodway, has just passed its first anniversary, and has become a topic of controversy since its release.



Definition of Temporary Marriage: "Standard, or conventional, marriage is open-ended in time and multi-targeted Temporary marriage is a second type entirely. It has very particular aims and context it operates (only) within a clearly defined, limited environment"



Some readers and reviewers applaud the concept, some hate it.



A common "pro" comment: "A novel phenomenon - a movement for the advancement of senior sexuality."



A typical "con" comment: "Doesn't this temporary marriage cheapen the standard marriage bond"



Speaking about the quality of the writing though, there is no controversy - the book is very well written and enjoyable:



"I recently read a novel that I found highly enjoyable. It's a really offbeat, tongue-in-cheek story about a sixty-plus man who thinks of a unique way to hook up with much younger women.The story line follows what happens when he actually tries out his theory - some really unexpected and hilarious things. Although the writing seems to be serious, when you actually think about it the whole thing seems to be more of a satire. The book is called A Temporary New Wife, by Malcolm Goodway. - Linda M. DiCicco, Ph.D."
