Their Wedding Journey is a novel by William Dean Howells, first published in 1872. The story follows the newlywed couple, Kenyon and Ellen, as they embark on their honeymoon journey across Europe. The couple faces various challenges and obstacles along the way, including cultural differences, language barriers, and financial difficulties. As they travel, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including fellow travelers and locals, who provide insight into the different cultures and societies they encounter. The novel explores themes of love, marriage, and the challenges of adapting to new environments. It also provides a glimpse into the social and cultural norms of the time period, particularly in Europe. The book is written in a realistic, yet humorous style, and is considered one of Howells' most popular works. Overall, Their Wedding Journey is a charming and insightful novel that offers a unique perspective on the joys and challenges of marriage and travel.1871. Howells was an American realist author. He wrote for various magazines including Atlantic Monthly and Harper's Magazine. His career blossomed after the publication of his first realist novel, A Modern Instance. The book begins: They first met in Boston, but the match was made in Europe, where they afterwards saw each other; wither, indeed, he followed her; and there the match was also broken off. Why it was broken off, and why it was renewed after a lapse of years, is part of quite a long love-story, which I do not think myself qualified to rehearse, distrusting my fitness for a sustained or involved narration; though I am persuaded that a skillful romancer could turn the courtship of Basil and Isabel March to excellent account.
