Confessions of a Slut

This recounting of twenty-six past love relationships creates a portrait of the protagonist as a woman who knows what she wants and who is often frustrated by the inability of any one man to fully rise to the occasion. This is a bittersweet, humorous account of a South African womans trial-and-error relationships as she searches for love. True love, however, continually evades her, largely because she takes a series of bad, yet entertaining, decisions. In trying to understand her own sexuality and heritage, she pushes boundaries and breaks societys rules with reckless abandon. KatOs carefree attitude, fun, and exploration come at a high price. KatO tells her story from her first sexual awakening as a virgin to her transformation to a bedroom goddess. Her love life remains a comedy of errors.
