Bad Sex: Truth, Pleasure and an Unfinished Revolution

Written by Nona Willis Aronowitz, Bad Sex: Truth, Pleasure, and an Unfinished Revolution is a compelling hardcover that blends memoir, feminist history, and cultural critique across 336 pages. At thirty-two, Nona found herself navigating personal upheaval—a crumbling marriage, shifting family dynamics, and a rekindled desire—all against a backdrop of political reckoning. She turned to the words of history's sexual revolutionaries, including her late mother, radical pro-sex feminist Ellen Willis, to question what sexual liberation truly means today. Through stories spanning nearly two hundred years—of ambivalent wives, free lovers, radical lesbians, and women who risk everything for intimacy—Nona interrogates her own desires amid patriarchy, capitalism, and systemic oppression. This brave exploration asks: What do we really want from sex and connection? Perfect for readers seeking honest, inclusive conversations about pleasure, consent, and the ongoing work of sexual freedom, Bad Sex is a thoughtful addition to any bedside table or gift collection.
