The Superstition of Divorce

A good little read. As usual Chesterton mixes wit with an uncanny ability to make clear the enduring truths of Christendom. Though not a "Catholic" book per se, Chesterton defends the Catholic position on Marriage and shows how this position is the one taken by all sane persons throughout time. Chesterton illustrates how the desire for divorce is not a desire for liberty, but rather a desire for respectability of sin. The dissolving of marriage is not the end but merely a symptom of a much greater divorce from Christianity; most notably Catholic Christianity.
