How do we have meaningful conversations about it with those closest to us? In Porn: An Oral History Polly Barton interrogates the absence of discussion around a topic that is ubiquitous and influences our daily lives. In her search for understanding she spent a year initiating intimate conversations with nineteen acquaintances of a range of ages genders and sexualities about everything and anything related to porn: watching habits emotions and feelings of guilt embarrassment disgust and shame fantasy and desire. Soon unfolding before her was exactly the book that she had been longing to encounter – not a traditional history but the raw honest truth about what we aren’t saying.
