Oftentimes a description of something is harder to explain than the thing itself! Pelicoon has been writing for decades, squirreling pages away in various notebooks, boxes and drawers. She is happy to blow the dust off some of the pages in no particular order. Just because! Having made this decision after much deliberation and consternation, Pelicoon presents stories, poems, chapters of books and perhaps a couple of plays. Surreal artwork may also be hiding behind the curtain. Welcome to the world of a Pelicoon. Any questions?

In her candid and provocative memoir, Wide Open, Gracie details the years she has spent exploring the poly lifestyle and creating her "chosen family." A fiercely intelligent feminist, she challenges traditional ideas about monogamy, fidelity, and sexuality. From swinger parties and strip clubs to sex toys and pornography, this is an edgy and thought-provoking read. Yet erotica and tenderness share space here, with Gracie's true love for both Hank and Oz—as well as her two children—coming through very clearly.
