But through the centuries paper figures have reflected religious and political beliefs, notions of womanhood, motherhood and family, the dictates of fashion, approaches to education, individual self-image and self-esteem, and ideas about death.

Until many years later, when taking an overall, view and stock of her life, which now seems to becoming so totally, out of her control, she finally decides that it's time for her to jump off, all of these fast-fun-filled-rides, which are taking her to nowhere. So after much soul-searching about what she does now really want in her life, she decides that it is time for a reconciliation with her second husband Alex. They decide to go to start a fresh new life, when they go to live together in North America, leaving all of her past behind her in England. So now finally at last Olivia, begins to enjoy the much-needed love of her husband and family, which deep down she had been craving for most of her life.

Book excerpt: Conjugal Rites explores the legal shape of marriage as it has been determined by countless decisions concerning entry and exit into the ancient rite. Heather Brook examines the countless rules and protocols governing marriage that make it valid in the eyes of the law. She argues that the various sexual performatives associated with marriage can establish, reinforce, or rupture conjugal unity while exploring the historical and politcal regulations and prohibitions marriage has faced.
