Determined to uncover the truth, Elizabeth Marquardt—herself a child of divorce—conducted, with Professor Norval Glenn, a pioneering national study of children of divorce, surveying 1,500 young adults from both divorced and intact families between 2001 and 2003. In Between Two Worlds, she weaves the findings of that study together with powerful, unsentimental stories of the childhoods of young people from divorced families. The hard truth, she says, is that while divorce is sometimes necessary, even amicable divorces sow lasting inner conflict in the lives of children. When a family breaks in two, children who stay in touch with both parents must travel between two worlds, trying alone to reconcile their parents’ often strikingly different beliefs, values, and ways of living. Authoritative, beautifully written, and alive with the voices of men and women whose lives were changed by divorce, Marquardt’s book is essential reading for anyone who grew up “between two worlds.” “Makes a persuasive case against the culture of casual divorce.” —Washington Post “A poignant narrative of her own experience . . . Marquardt says she and other young adults who grew up in the divorce explosion of the 1970s and 1980s are still dealing with wounds that they could never talk about with their parents.”—Chicago Tribune 222866 26 9 2006 Between Two Worlds: The Inner Lives of Children of Divorce total:16|5:7|4:7|3:2| 16 69 29 6 3 0 false false Sun Jun 28 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 30 08:56:47 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 30 09:03:40 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Mon Sep 24 18:44:37 -0700 2007 Thu Oct 04 13:54:28 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu May 01 07:19:58 -0700 2008 Thu May 01 07:24:24 -0700 2008
