The long accomplishment : a memoir of hope and struggle in matrimony.
Rick Moody, author of the novel 'The Ice Storm', is a recovering alcoholic and sexual compulsive with a history of depression. In 'The Long Accomplishment', Moody shares the harrowing true story of the first year of his second marriage. To Moodys astonishment, matrimony turns out to be the site of strength in hard times, a vessel infinitely tougher and more durable than any boat these two participants would have traveled by alone. Love buoys the couple, lifting them above their hardships, and the reader is buoyed along with them.
