In this regard, Daisy reflected, her marriage to Matthew would not be unlike Lillian’s with Westcliff. As two strong-willed people with very different sensibilities, Lillian and Westcliff often argued and negotiated… and yet this didn’t seem to weaken their marriage. Quite the opposite, in fact- their union seemed all the better for it.She considered her friends’ marriages… Annabelle and Mr. Hunt as a harmony of similar dispositions… Evie and Lord St. Vincent with their opposite natures, as necessary to each other’s existence as day and night. It was impossible to say that any of these pairings was superior to the others.Perhaps, in spite of all she had heard about the ideal of a perfect marriage, there was no such thing. Perhaps every marriage was a unique creation.
