Marriage: A Matter Of Culture – By Claudia Nneka Hirsch

The Unspoken Guest in Every Marriage: Culture. In Africa, and specifically in Nigeria, marriage is rarely just between two individuals—it is a union of two cultures. Claudia Nneka Hirsch delves into the hidden dynamics that often cause friction in modern marriages: differing traditional beliefs, family involvement, and cultural roles.

This book is an invaluable resource for engaged couples, newlyweds, and even long-married partners who want to decode why they see the world differently. By examining the impact of heritage on communication and conflict resolution, Claudia Nneka Hirsch offers a bridge to mutual understanding and respect, proving that while marriage is a matter of the heart, it is also very much a matter of culture.
