Flesh by Brigid Brophy
"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. With a sharp wit and a keen eye for the absurdities of social norms, the narrative explores themes of liberation, identity, and the pursuit of pleasure, all while challenging the reader to reconsider traditional notions of morality and the role of fleshly desires in the search for personal fulfillment.
