Synopsis

Esther Perel explores why great sex often fades in long-term relationships, even when love remains strong. She tackles the anxieties that arise when the need for security clashes with the desire for passion, and offers insights into reigniting intimacy. This book challenges conventional wisdom, suggesting that a focus on equality and candor might actually hinder erotic desire, and proposes ways to bring lust back into domestic life.
