In William Goldman’s “The Princess Bride”‚ the representation of love and marriage has challenged my values‚ through the unidealised reasons to why couples get married‚ the long-term unromantic relationship between Buttercup’s parents and the rather fast development of Buttercup and Westley’s love.

What does The Princess Bride say about Truth? November 18‚ 2013 Truth The truth I discovered in The Princess Bride‚ by William Goldman‚ was based on love.
