Author Description

Sitting in a meeting of Sex Addicts Anonymous, Claire Halliday insists to herself she's there for research. But while trying to work out what to say when her turn comes, she begins to wonder whether we aren't all sex addicts now. Combining memoir and reportage, Claire Halliday considers the place of sex throughout Australian life. She explores the issues with unsparing candour testing them against her own life and her own feelings rather than abstract ideals. The result is inquiring, challenging and fascinating.
