The book "The Pleasures of Single Life, or, The Restlessness of Matrimony Occasionally Recorded for the Many Divorces Recently Allowed by Parliament. With a Choice, or, The Pleasures of Country Life. Dedicated to the Majors Before the Next Vacation" is a humorous and satirical treatise by a British author exploring the themes of singleness , marriage and living in the village. The author compares the joys and vagaries of single life with the torments and problems of marriage, especially focusing on divorces, which gained special popularity at the time of writing the work due to its novelty. The book contains advice, reflections and jokes that relate to various aspects of rural life and patterns of human relations. "Born on the wave of sharp satire, the book allows the reader to simultaneously laugh at life and think about its complexity and unpredictability."
