Summary:
"Leila Slimani was in her native
Morocco
promoting her novel Adele, about a woman addicted to
sex
, when she began meeting women who confided the dark secrets of their sexual lives. In
Morocco
, adultery, abortion, homosexuality, prostitution, and
sex
outside of marriage are all punishable by law, and women have only two choices: They can be wives or virgins.
Sex
and Lies combines vivid, often harrowing testimonies with Slimani's passionate and intelligent commentary to make a galvanizing case for a sexual revolution in the Arab world."--From publisher.
