''The Brides of March'' is a memoir by American writer Beren deMotier. Published in 2007, ''The Brides of March'', a narrative non-fiction tale of getting married, celebrated, constitutionally banned, and annulled in Oregon, is a brides’ eye view of a “giddy leap through a legal window, straight onto the barbecue pit of public debate.” Author Beren deMotier tells it like it was Oregon Ballot Measure 36 (2004), and is, as California's Proposition 8 puts same-sex married couples in legal limbo. ==Plot summary== ''The Brides of March'' is a bride’s eye view of same-sex marriage at a moment’s notice, with a bevy of brides, their coterie of children, donuts, newspaper reporters, screaming protesters, mothers of the brides who never thought they’d see the day, white wedding cake, and a houseful of happy heterosexuals toasting the marriage! But that was only the beginning as these private declarations of love became public fodder, fueling social commentary, letters to the editor, and the fires of political debate, when all The Brides of March wanted was the opportunity to say, “I do,” in this candid, poignant and frequently funny tale of lesbian moms getting to the church on time in Multnomah County. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Brides of March」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
