On Freedom

Anne, Christian, and Alex have a number of things in common. They all live in New York City, are in their forties, and each is happily divorced. All three of them are also openly bisexual. In these four interrelated stories, join three queer people in both their eroticism and their private conversations as they enjoy ethical non-monogamy in a post-pandemic city. ON FREEDOM not only depicts their arousal and sensual pleasure, but also their fantasies and a number of their fears. In addition to sharing polyamorous affection with their bodies, these characters also share coming out stories, crushes on both of the Gyllenhaals, early childhood trauma, and even a couple of restaurant reviews. Oh, and of course their shared love for the essays and poetry of Maggie Nelson. In his book, Christian Pan describes erotic episodes of same-sex, opposite-sex, group-play, and a little kink with intelligence, affection, and realism. But more than simply stimulating the reader´s erotic imagination, ON FREEDOM articulates a more accurate representation of bisexual-identifying men and women in America today. ON FREEDOM contains the following stories:
