Ever since her teens, Melissa had been in one relationship or another until, in the wake of a disastrous break-up, she vowed to a period of celibacy. She had no idea that this year would become the most fulfilling and sensual of her life.
The Dry Season is a memoir of Melissa's year of celibacy, and a profound exploration of independence, sexuality and deep self-knowledge.
Melissa Febos is the national bestselling author of four previous books: Whip Smart, Abandon Me, Girlhood - winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award in Criticism - and Body Work: The Radical Power of Personal Narrative. She has been awarded prizes and fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, LAMBDA Literary, the National Endowment for the Arts, the British Library, the Black Mountain Institute, the Bogliasco Foundation, MacDowell, the American Library in Paris and others. Her work has appeared in the Paris Review, New Yorker, New York Times Magazine, Best American Essays, Vogue, Sewanee Review, New York Review of Books and elsewhere.
