In this episode, we focus on what happened when Sex at Dawn was published in 2010. He’s fielding calls from production companies, taking meetings with agents, etc — getting all sorts of ‘smoke blown up his ass’ as he describes it.
We also get into what it was like to read negative reviews in the press, and even an entire book length refutation of Sex at Dawn.
Chris talks about how important his father’s influence was on his writing, and the irony of all of Chris’s research about non monogamy in humans being the result of his parents very long and very successful monogamous relationship.
