Krasnow is a media and lecture tour favorite, and readers—whether in the heat of an initial can’t-eat-can’t-sleep attraction or rounding the corner to their sixtieth anniversary—will applaud her eye-opening perspectives on the one issue that can change lives for better or worse like nothing else.

Paperback. 330 Pages.
The narrative of Sex After… is driven by real women’s stories: raw, intimate, and, most importantly, true. Prescriptive, emancipating, and insightful, Sex After . . . addresses a range of circumstances, including what happens:
- When you or your spouse doesn’t want sex anymore
- After cancer, amputation, PTSD, or another illness maims the body
- If you come out of the closet at middle age
- When your marriage is damaged by adultery
- If you’re dating again after twenty-five years with the same sexual partner
- When your husband is addicted to Viagra
“[Krasnow] is a knowledgeable guide who shows great respect to the variety of life circumstances and aims to put readers at ease…there is osmething relatable for everyone and many opportunities to gain new knowledge as one moves through life.”
—Publishers Weekly
“[Krasnow] alternates well-researched passages full of relevant statistics and quotes with frank stories about sex after major life events such as childbirth, illness, infidelity, and more…Those skeptical of Krasnow’s assertion that, in the realm of sex, ‘the 70s are the new 40s’ surely will change their minds after reading this lusty litany”
—Bookpage
“This book will start conversations that need to be had, and discussions about female sexual health and pleasure that need to be better understood. Some of the best and most practical advice comes from those who have been there. I also know change to, and in, our sex lives is inevitable and that women want to know what other women really do to recreate their intimate and sexual landscape. Part validation, part guide, part supportive girlfriend, Sex After… is your close girlfriends in book form sharing the real goods—and I mean real goods—on what they did and do.”
—Lou Paget, author of The Great Lover Playbook and AASECT Certified Sex Educator
