Never mind that she already owned a beautiful flat a few blocks away, that she was 44, or that she was married to a man she'd been in love with for 18 years. What followed amp;mdash; a year of sex, heartbreak, and unexpected revelation amp;mdash; is the topic of this riveting memoir, \u003ci\u003eThe Wild Oats Project\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn open marriage was never one of Rinaldi's goals amp;mdash; her priority as she approached midlife was to start a family.

During the week she would live alone, seduce men (and women), attend erotic workshops, and partake in wall-banging sex. On the weekends she would go home and be a wife.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt a time when the best-seller lists are topped by books about eroticism and the shifting roles of women, this brave memoir explores how our sexuality defines us amp;mdash; and it delivers the missing link: an everywoman's account of sex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombining the strong literary voice of Cheryl Strayed's \u003ci\u003eWild\u003c\/i\u003e with the adventurousness of Elizabeth Gilbert's \u003ci\u003eEat, Pray, Love\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Wild Oats Project\u003c\/i\u003e challenges our sensibilities and evokes the delicate balance between loving others and staying true to oneself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Macmillan Audio production.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47101968908528,"sku":"2940169399196","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169399196_p0.jpg?v=1763681499","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169399196","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
