From the daring Peruvian essayist and provocateur behind Sexographies comes a fierce and funny exploration of sex, pregnancy, and motherhood that delves headlong into our fraught fascination with human reproduction. Women play all the time with the great power that’s been conferred upon us: it’s fun to think about reproducing. Or not reproducing. Or walking around in a sweet little dress with a round belly underneath that will turn into a baby to cuddle and spoil. When you’re fifteen, the idea is fascinating, it attracts you like a piece of chocolate cake. When you’re thirty, the possibility attracts you like an abyss. Gabriela Wiener is not one to shy away from unpleasant truths or to balk at a challenge. She began her writing career by infiltrating Peru’s most dangerous prison, going all in at swingers clubs, ingesting ayahuasca in the Amazon jungle. So at 30, when she gets unexpectedly pregnant, she looks forward to the experience the way a mountain climber approaches a precipitous peak. With a scientist’s curiosity and a libertine’s unbridled imagination, Wiener hungrily devours every scrap of information and misinformation she encounters during the nine months of her pregnancy. She ponders how pleasure and pain always have something to do with things entering or exiting your body. She laments that manuals for pregnant women don’t prepare you for ambushes of lust or that morning sickness is like waking up with a hangover and a guilty conscience all at once. And she tries to navigate the infinity of choices and contradictory demands a pregnant woman confronts, each one amplified to a life-and-death decision. While pregnant women are still placed on pedestals, or used as political battlegrounds, or made into passive objects of study, Gabriela Wiener defies definition. With unguarded humor and breathtaking directness, Nine Moons questions the dogmas, upends the stereotypes, and embraces all the terror, beauty, and paradoxes of the propagation of the species. Praise for Sexographies “No other writer in the Spanish-speaking world is as fiercely independent and thoroughly irreverent as Gabriela Wiener. Constantly testing the limits of genre and gender, Wiener´s work as a cronista (which roughly translates, but is by no means a direct synonym, of nonfiction writer) has bravely unveiled truths some may prefer remain concealed about a range of topics, from the daily life of polymorphous desire to the tiring labor of maternity.” —Cristina Rivera Garza, author of The Iliac Crest “This collection of essays [opens] on the outskirts of Lima, jumps to a swinger’s party in Barcelona, and next a squirt expert’s apartment. This book can feel psychologically hazardous to read; it pushes you to answer the questions Wiener asks herself: Would I? Could I? Will I?” —Angela Ledgerwood, Esquire Best Books of 2018 “These are essays of unabashed honesty and uncommon freedom of mind, bravely reported and beautifully composed. I hadn’t known how hungry I’d been for this book, how I’d needed it and wanted other books to be it. Sexographies is an antidote and a revelation, and Gabriela Wiener is a brilliant documenter of sex and life as they really are.” —Kristin Dombek, author of The Selfishness of Others “In her native Peru, Gabriela Wiener has a reputation as a gonzo journalist who takes an active role in whatever subject she investigates, which as often as not involves sex, and not the vanilla variety. In this collection, her first translated into English, we meet a notorious polygamous pornographer; go to 6&9, a Barcelona sex club; interview the cruel Lady Monique de Nemours, a world-class dominatrix; visit Vanessa, a member of the European community of Latin American trans sex workers; get a first-hand look at the perils of threesomes; and explore other topics a tad too risqué to even name in a family newspaper. Suffice to say, Wiener’s free-wheeling style is hugely entertaining.” —Sarah Murdoch, Toronto Star "Reading Gabriela Wiener is a joy. Over the years, her work has made me cry, laugh, hurt, and most importantly, dream. Her essays are daring, intimate, and honest, containing the self-awareness of a poet and the sharp focus of a marksman. I'd follow her anywhere." —Daniel Alarcón, author of At Night We Walk in Circles “One of the most interesting writers of this generation is Gabriela Wiener, a Peruvian journalist best known for her high-spirited explorations of female sexuality.... Wiener is witty and fast-paced; many of her experiences, sexual and otherwise, are hard-won, territories explored and sometimes conquered, despite her neurotic misgivings, with courage and aplomb. Part of her appeal lies in the fact that she sometimes writes about sexual topics that have not been well explored, especially by women, and a sense of incredulity is part of the pleasure of reading her work. ‘Is she really going to do that?’ the reader wonders. ‘Is she really going to write (and so openly) about doing that?’ And then she does, and there’s a slight but perceptible shift in the world because she did.” —Lisa Fetchko, Los Angeles Review of Books “With sizzling prose and journalistic attentiveness, Wiener honors the no-clothes rule. She exposes her readers to not only her body, but also to the neuroses, fears, and fantasies that come with it. True to the first-person style of gonzo journalism, each of Wiener’s fifteen transgressive crónicas pull readers into penetrative commentaries on infidelity, abortion, and threesomes, not to mention the ever-elusory ‘Ninja Squirt.’... Sexographies strikes the delicate balance between carnal and curious…. It [expands] the meaning of what pleasure in life can be, sexual or otherwise.” —Madeline Day, The Paris Review “What Peruvian essayist and “gonzo” journalist, Wiener, does in this collection is endlessly fascinating. Whether experiencing sexual subcultures or an ayahuasca trip, she uses herself as the point of departure to delve into the infinite manifestations of being human.” — Keaton, Brazos Bookstore (Houston, TX), Best Nonfiction Books of 2018 “Gabriela Wiener is a Peruvian sex writer, and Sexografias is a book of her collected essays. However, she doesn’t just stay on the carnal, and uses her explorations of egg donation, swingers parties, cruising, and squirting as channels into meditations on motherhood, death, and immigration, all while staying sharp and funny and wild.” — Alejandra Oliva, Remezcla

The story. "The Nine Moons of Adjemir." Is a story of magic and fantasy and the way this manuscript came about is rather interesting. When the author, Tyler Dhensaw was still in Grade 9, his English class was asked to write an essay and the content of this essay was to be about magic and fantasy. After the assignment was handed in and towards the end of the day, his teacher called young Tyler to stay after class, for a few moments so she could comment on his work. The essay, which had been handed in by Tyler, was simply called. "Darmonarrow." The essay "Darmonarrow" actually became the first seven chapters of the book which has been re-titled. "The Nine Moons of Adjemir." Tyler's English teacher did not want to comment about this essay in front of the entire class but she was quite excited about Tyler's writing skills. Apparently she had saw or felt something about Tyler's writing style, at which time she asked him to do one more edit on his work. "Darmonarrow." When he handed in the edited version of "Darmonarrow" Tyler's teacher became even more excited. In a complimentary fashion she asked him if was possible to use his essay "Darmonarrow" in her next semesters class. Tyler who had just recently turned 14 years of age at the time, with his chest pumped out, while beaming with pride, stated to his surprised parents that evening, what his English teacher had said. With a young persons bragging confidence, he stated he felt he was good enough to write a book. Of course his parents, without Tyler's observation just rolled their eyes. Although they felt considerable doubt at the time they did not try to discourage him. It was approximately six months later with the same youthful confidence, Tyler Stated to his still1 somewhat apprehensive parents, his book would be finished before his 15th birthday. Of course, his father, added some incentive by making him a $200.00 side bet. His father still has the hand written note, from Tyler which was written at 11:58 PM, on the eve of Tyler's 15th birthday. Tyler received a check from his father which concluded the earlier wager. While crafting the book, what young Tyler found the most difficult in regards to the "Nine Moons of Adjemir" was the invention of the names of some of the characters. He solved this problem by use the names of some relatives and of some friends. By moving some letters around, or adding letters to their names thereby causing an intentionally misspelling, he was able to create all of the characters for his manuscript. You may also notice that some of the words used in the book, were actually taken from a rearrangement of letters which were used in the spelling of Adjemir. As you are reading the "Nine Moons of Adjemir," you may also notice the main character, Bobbiur, ages and matures as the story progresses. Tyler as a young writer, also aged and matured as the drafting of the story progressed. Clearly, his writing style matured considerably during the year which it took him to finish the story. At Tyler's age a year seems forever. Tyler who remains a very enthusiastic writer has promised that the sequel to "The Nine Moons of Adjemir" will be better written and much better reading. His style has not changed over the year but clearly his writing skills have improved. When he began to write "The Nine Moons of Adjemir" it commenced as a children's book. But as time progressed, Tyler's maturing as a young adult became evident in his writing skills. The book seemed to move from a children's book to that of a young adults book. As a reader we hope you are able to see this progression.
