Antonella Gambotto-Burke

My generation was, in effect, the product of a social experiment. If we did not understand marital intimacy, it was because we had not seen it modelled.

Marriage is never static. There are peaks and troughs, cycles. It is easy to forget that this shifting landscape is really only ever a reflection of the self.
