About book Mary Marie (2007)

Short novel from 1920 about divorce. The narrator is an exuberant, indiscreet teenage girl who is excited by the novelty of her parents' divorce and is keen to scrutinise everything to do with it. Obviously, this "Isn't divorce fun?" stuff isn't intended to wear long. It's a think-of-the-children book, but Porter isn't too glib and issue-y and gives things an appearance of unfolding naturally. It ends with an adult Marie contemplating her own divorce, which I wasn't expecting. It's a nice fun read.
