Love In Exile with Shon Faye

From the award-winning, sell-out live event series, Sex Talks: London's hottest new book club, The Pleasure Shelf.

This month we're joined by award-winning writer, former-Vogue columnist and the author of TWO Sunday Times Bestsellers, Shon Faye.

Faye joins us to discuss her latest book, Love in Exile, which offers readers a nuanced perspective on this most universal of topics: love, urging readers to reconsider their assumptions and embrace a broader understanding of connection, intimacy and desire.

We'll be discussing what motivated Faye to delve into the topic of love, what she thinks we're all getting so very wrong when it comes to romance and what a more expansive view of intimacy might look like. There will be an audience Q&A too.

Coffee and refreshments will be served all morning and you will be able to buy Love In Exile on site.

Can't wait to see you there! xxx
