Summary:
"A memoir of one woman's year of an open marriage, during which she explored everything she'd ever wondered about sex but hadn't tried. An attractive, successful magazine journalist, Robin Rinaldi, would move into a San Francisco apartment, join a dating site, and get laid. Never mind that she already owned a beautiful flat a few blocks away, that she was forty-four, or that she was married to a man she'd been in love with for eighteen years. What followed--a year of sex, heartbreak, and unexpected revelation--is the topic of this memoir. An open marriage was never one of Rinaldi's goals--her priority as she approached midlife was to start a family. But when her husband insisted on a vasectomy, she decided that she could remain married only on her own terms. If I can't have children, she told herself, then I'm going to have lovers. During the week she would live alone, seduce men (and
women
), attend erotic workshops, and partake in wall-banging sex. On the weekends, she would go home and be a wife. An exploration of how our sexuality defines us--and an everywoman's account of sex.It challenges our sensibilities and evokes the delicate balance between loving others and staying true to oneself"--Provided by publisher.
