Ships August 9th.

A More Than Two Essentials Guide

We cannot contain our excitement for this debut title from friend-of-the-shop, non-monogamy expert, and all-round smarty-pants, Andrea Zanin. What is sure to be the first of many published endeavours, this gorgeous little book from the famed Thornapple Press explores post-nonmonogamy and polyamory as state, a practice, and as an identity. This small and accessible book asks all the right questions to help folks through a part of the journey that doesn't get a lot of attention from most monogamy or polyamory books.

Nonmonogamy has exploded in popularity over recent decades, spawning dozens of how-to guides and countless media articles. But quietly, in the wake of this wave of non-traditional relationships, a growing number of people have moved away from the nonmonogamy they once practiced. It’s not about rejecting nonmonogamy as bad or wrong. For some, trauma or the stresses of everyday life got in the way of multiple committed relationships; others lost their motivation to pursue new partners. Some ended up monogamous by attrition, and others are single by choice.

What’s it like on the other side of nonmonogamy? How did you get there? How does your life reflect what you learned along the way? Is nonmonogamy an identity or a practice? And do you think you might ever jump back in? Post-nonmonogamy and Beyond invites you to explore these questions in a spirit of self-reflection, self-compassion and curiosity.
