Didn't feel it like I did her first book that I read. :(
The Marriage Plot is mostly the story of English major, Madeline Hanna. Another lost college grad of the 1980's, Madeline is stuck between the world in which she lives and the world in which she studies, namely her thesis on the analysis of marriage in literature, thus The Marriage Plot. When Madeline meets Leonard, however, everything changes. Enamored but Leonard, Madeline doesn't know he also suffers from manic depression. Suddenly, Madeline is not only questioning her studies, but she's also begins questioning the lengths she herself would go to for someone she loves. I say the story is mostly about Madeline because the point of view toggles back and forth between her and Mitchell, another lost college graduate who decides to travel to find himself, but no matter how hard he tries, all roads lead back to Madeline. The Marriage Plot was a decent book, the depictions of manic depression alone, glaringly realistic. There are no easy answers with with mania, or with love. If I could change anything I would have made the lead in to the "meat" of the book a bit shorter because it took a while to get to the crux of the story.
