Marriage by H.L. Mencken is a collection of essays and articles written by the famous American journalist and critic on the subject of marriage. Mencken's views on marriage are characterized by his trademark wit and irreverence, as he explores the institution from a variety of angles, including its history, its social and cultural significance, and its impact on individual happiness and fulfillment.Throughout the book, Mencken challenges many of the conventional assumptions about marriage, arguing that it is often a source of unhappiness and frustration for both men and women. He also critiques the legal and religious aspects of marriage, arguing that they often serve to restrict individual freedom and autonomy.Despite his critical stance, Mencken also acknowledges the positive aspects of marriage, such as companionship, intimacy, and the creation of families. He also explores alternative forms of relationships, such as open marriages and polyamory, and considers the possibility of a future in which traditional marriage is no longer the norm.Overall, Marriage is a thought-provoking and entertaining exploration of one of the most fundamental and complex aspects of human life. Mencken's insights and observations are sure to challenge readers' assumptions and spark lively debate and discussion.THIS 64 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: In Defense of Women, by H. L.
