Diary of a Divorce Lawyer by Gordon William Webb

These are universal stories which anyone who has been involved with a divorce – and who hasn’t? – will enjoy.

They are stories of shattered dreams, broken hearts and all the intricacies and frequent humorous absurdities that accompany the ending of the most intimate of human relationships.

This book is not a guide on how to cope with a divorce, simply an account of how marriages end. Some of the stories are extremely difficult to believe. People under extreme emotional pressure cannot fail to reveal the worst, and not infrequently the best, sides of their natures. These engaging narratives are held together by a common storyteller: an eager young lawyer who

becomes increasingly cynical with experience, and who is ably assisted by his ever-efficient secretary. Although presented as fiction, the stories are all based on actual cases which have been embellished ‒ because truth is not always stranger than fiction.
