About this Event

A HARPER’S BAZAAR MOST ANTICIPATED SUMMER READ featuring an introduction by Esther Perel, renowned psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author of Mating in Captivity.

FREE. Registration Requested.

Sex Diaries lets us peek inside the pages of private diaries, offering a singular, panoramic view into the world of polyamory, and an unforgettable ode to love, lust, longing, and desire. Some diarists are just beginning to question their relationship with monogamy; others have been polyamorous for a long-time. Some accounts are graphic and dishy, while others focus on the search for lasting connections that feel genuinely liberatory. Every single one is strikingly honest and authentic, inviting us to relish the types of stories we hear in secret—the desires and fantasies that get whispered about to trusted confidantes, or relegated to the pages of a diary.
