"Flesh" is a novel that delves into the complexities of human relationships and sexuality through the lens of a young woman's journey of self-discovery. The protagonist, a free-spirited and intelligent individual, navigates the intricacies of love, marriage, and extramarital affairs in a society bound by conventional expectations.
