This month, we’re talking to Cara Gereau, a Marriage and Family Therapist about Come Together: The Science (and Art!) of Creating Lasting Sexual Connections by Emily Nagoski, PhD and Dept. of Speculation by Jenny Offill.
In Come Together, Emily takes on a fundamentally misunderstood subject: sex in long-term relationships. The book delves into the complexities of sexual connection, exploring both the scientific and emotional aspects of intimacy. And our second book, Dept. of Speculation, compliments Come Together well, as it offers a portrait of a marriage and ruminates on the mysteries of intimacy and trust. It’s a quick literary read but will definitely stay with you long after you’ve put it down.
