Description

Margaret Spencer has spent years mocking the institution of marriage, building a comfortable career and a self‑crafted routine of solitary reflection. On a bright wedding day she drops all those theories, becomes Mrs. Richard Graham, and silently repeats the mantra, “I will be happy!” Her late mother’s dying wish—to record every marital difficulty for the next generation—now haunts her as she steps into a life she never imagined.

Her new husband, Dicky, is a free‑spirited artist whose charm is matched by a stubborn insistence that she abandon her teaching job. Margaret’s first weeks together are a delicate dance between her longing for independence and the quiet demands of domesticity, all observed through the hour she has always set aside for private thought. As she begins to chronicle the small triumphs and inevitable frustrations, listeners are invited to share in a candid, early‑twentieth‑century portrait of love, compromise, and the search for a shared identity.
