Publisher Marketing: There are many books on the subjects of Marriage, Separation and Divorce but Between the Rock of Marriage and the Hard Place of Separation, meticulously crafted by Gilli Stephens, stands head and shoulders above the rest. Not only does Gilli provide real, practical, down-to-earth information but, probably more importantly, she reaches out to those who are caught up in this traumatic and befuddling process, afraid and in pain. In so doing, she provides a practical step by step approach and constructs an emotional road map and a manual that is not only easy to understand but also extremely comforting. In practical terms she deals with such aspects as the emotional - hope versus fear, fantasy versus reality; the personal - children, family and friends; the legal - marriage versus relationship, separation versus divorce, mediation versus lawyers; money matters - financial division, property and belongings; plus a whole range of additional elements that cover the entire gambit of those dreaded words separation and divorce. But she also provides the reader with real and genuine hope for the future, how to move positively on in changing and changed circumstances. And in so doing she provides a must-read book for the many, many couples who are in a bad health marriage and are seeking guidance, help and hope.
