A Free Woman is an erotic short story about a late-middle-aged woman who challenges norms and expectations that society expects her to conform to. She embraces a way of life that is considered taboo. She takes on young lovers and experiences a sexual awakening that turns her into a new person.
B. J. Hermansson skillfully creates short stories that encompass both quick-witted prose and poetic descriptions. The underlying tone in these texts often inspires the reader to contemplate and question our established, pre-conceived ideas, especially when it comes to the normal, standards and sexuality.
