Ever since I read this book, I've been looking for a similar read: just simple everyday life of a couple. I especially loved the tale, no need for something very philosophical... Any suggestions?

I highly suggest "The Angle of Repose" by Wallace Stagner. It's an incredible story, following the full course of a complicated and profound marriage.
The book is beautifully written - it's a novel, not philosophy - and it's stayed with me since University. (It's also one of the few books I've read more than once.) I can't recommend it enough.
It's set in the late 1800's, (I believe), America. A young woman living in New England gets passed over by the man she loves and decides to marry, slightly impulsively, a young mining engineer. The story follows her as they move out west, and the struggles and back and forth of a marriage. It's beautiful and complicated and intense and real.
