Description

A revelatory and wildly entertaining chronicle of polyamory from Guggenheim fellow and beloved literary icon Michelle Tea.

Love is consuming, love is boundless. Isn't it natural for love to then spill out of the lines we draw around it?

Even before polyamory burst into the mainstream with its magnetic promise of liberation, Michelle Tea has been on the forefront, searching for a love without judgment. Her husband – though firmly monogamous – understands her enough to embark on a playful and sometimes painful adventure through such a marriage.

With years of experience on the queer scene, Michelle Tea uncovers the risks and rewards of non-monogamy, the honesty it requires, the guilt it elicits. Emphatic and refreshing, Free Love is an unforgettable lark through poly parties, STI clinics, tarot readings and good old-fashioned sluttery.

Michelle Tea is the author of over a dozen books, including the cult-classic Valencia, the essay collection Against Memoir and the memoirs Black Wave and Knocking Myself Up.
