Liberation has many avenues – and sex is simply one more path towards liberation that Africans have to traverse. Black and Afro-descendant women’s experiences with sex, sexualities and pleasure are comprehensively documented in this fascinating exploration of these almost universally taboo subjects. At times painful, joyful and humourous – and always candid – this is the eye-opening and informative book we have all been needing.
