The Couple's Book

Benrik

THE COUPLE'S BOOK is an ironic, interactive book for him and her, in which lovers record their moments of mutual bliss and monitor the ups and downs of their relationship.

The book is structured along chronological lines, from 'Love Is In The Air' (our first date - who made the first move - the first time we made love - meeting the parents - gifts we will/will not accept from each other - astrological compatibility - choosing nicknames for each other); through 'Pillow Talk' (favourite bits of each other - a condensed Kamasutra to tick every position we've tried - drawings of each other's naked bodies - things we each will/will not do - vintage orgasms); to 'Ever After' (happiest memories together - ageing gracefully, where signs of ageing are monitored, wrinkles for her, hairs on pillow for him - planning for grandchildren, because it's never too early - planning our retirement together - writing our joint epitaph). At the heart of the book lies 'The Couple's Logbook': an especially intimate chapter reserved for comments and grievances that, if left unspoken, could sink the relationship...
