Pallavi Barnwal

Sex Is... (eBook, ePUB)

Memoir of a Woman's Sexuality

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Sex Is...is an unflattering, no-holds-barred portrait of Pallavi-her life, inhibitions, sexual frenzy, emotional complications and her pursuit to find a deeper and nuanced meaning of life and self through her numerous affairs. Pallavi's writing is the most confessional personal essay one can ever imagine. She never shies away from telling the reader about her imperfect, impulsive and vulnerable dark side, stripping herself bare and including her most detailed, glorified sexual and primal impulses. There are a lot of sexual undertones in her story because she wants to give sex as much space in her writing as it exists in the world she lives in. Sex is a huge part of most people's lives-be it actually having sex or imagining about it. The characters in this memoir are real and have all possible human flaws, as they live in denial and struggle through life's moments.

Sex Is...is a fountain of wild energy for anyone who is stuck in an image of social approval, whose life is caving in, where monotony is getting the best of them, and who doesn't know how to get out of it. Grab the book for a jump-start!

Autorenporträt

Pallavi Barnwal has always lived on the razorblade edge of life, from being born in a dysfunctional family to living through a series of failed relationships. Her unconventional life experiences have shaped and enriched her mission of bringing happiness and contentment in the intimate lives of people. Having worked for a decade in the corporate, she left it all after realising the futility of the rat race and instead chose a field that had many people drop their jaws the moment they heard it-sex education. She founded a sex-positive start-up, wrote in leading national dailies on sexual pleasure and gave a TEDx talk on the importance of having conversations around sex in families. Her work has been well received from sections of all age groups and genders, starting from a 16-year-old girl reaching out to her who had unprotected sex to a 55-year-old man living in a sexless marriage for 18 years.
