Anatomy of a Turn-On

"I'm thinking something, what am I thinking?"

In fact, there is no thinking at all. Just action, sensation, and a new understanding occurring at a subterranean level. Chapter 11 of Miranda July's All Fours is a veritable feast of subconscious mystery: sex dreams, uncharted intimacy, and the perilous territory of goodbye. Amy & Tommy dig right into the middle of it, excavating juicy bits of their own past--it's SPICY!

Are we all just landscapes with unexpected rushes of pleasure hidden even from ourselves? Suddenly, a trifecta arrives:  an element of  surprise, a little push against a moral boundary,  a subversion of etiquette, and we are turned ON. Listen for aaaaaaaaallll the details and weigh in on our Substack!
