This is a wonderful review of my book and I am honored and grateful, I would , however, like to say a few words about privilege. For the record, most of the adventures in this book could be had by any woman of any class. I don't think the larger message should get lost: that women can create adventure, romance and sexual satisfaction in their middle years-- and they hardly have to go to Bali to do so. (In fact, I did not have any adventures in Bali- I went there to write the book- not to be with someone.) Furthermore, the main place I stayed in Bali was sixty five dollars a night- pretty reasonable for almost any one compared to most hotels. I was a guest of the fabulous Aman resorts because I was writing this book and also a travel book ( Perfect Places for Passion-- working on it now!) and they are indeed fantasy places that only people of means can stay in ( and travel writers). But my great luck at staying in them has nothing to do with my larger message - enjoying our sensuality and sexuality all of our lives, and especially in our fifities, sixties and beyond!
