A Plague on Both Your Houses

Couples from mixed Protestant and Catholic marriages recount the difficulties they’ve encountered in a divided society, including rejection by their families, friction in the workplace, intimidation in their neighbourhoods, and the bullying suffered by their children for choices made by their parents. They also detail their strategies of resistance and survival, and significant instances of unexpected moral support from across the sectarian divide.
