Synopsis

After a fifteen-year monogamous relationship, Noa quickly decided that her journey from ‘we’ back to ‘me’ wasn’t going to be filled with just pain and loneliness. While experiencing the five stages of grief - denial, anger, negotiation, depression, and acceptance - she realized that her life could also be full of joy, fun, and pleasure.

Noa (re)discovers the meaning of sex, love, and intimacy after divorce when she trades the familiarity of living within the traditions of a Jewish marriage for a new life in a society ruled by apps, texting, and casual sex. Her intimate encounters and new friendships serve as her guides, leading to a journey of self-discovery through shattered beliefs and broken taboos.

This collection of short stories, full of unexpected twists and humorous vulnerability, is a naked testimony of her journey. Hormones, curiosity, and a relentless will to heal from trauma leads to a personal, yet universally relatable transformation from fear and doubt to freedom and confidence.
