Zen and Sex
Dermot Davis, author

Adult; General Fiction (including literary and historical); (Market)

Martin is a 24 year guy who falls in love with a 38 year old woman. He has to grow so fast emotionally that he feels like he just got hit by a speeding bus. Not only is Frances fourteen years Martin's senior, but she's all about putting Zen into relationship, which involves every guy's worst nightmare: talking about your feelings, being conscious of your thoughts and above all, unabashed, honest communication at all times. Martin has no idea what he is getting himself into and the sharp learning curve that's required of him especially when he's in the mood for sex and she wants Zen
Reviews
KINDLE BOOK REVIEW

Do I want to really know what men are thinking? Yes, yes and YES. Especially if they are as funny as Martin. I laughed so hard, omg. I think that every woman should read this as marriage counseling. Maybe if I read this, then I would have not been so mad when my hubby acted like Martin!!! The author did a great job of making me laugh, while still getting his point across. I loved the romantic plot. I loved that the book was based on a man's point of view.

I definitely laughed more than anything and the ending was also well done. I liked the sex that was written into the story line as well. It wasn't overkill, but it got the point across. Next time I get mad at my hubby I am going to think of this book! 5 out of 5 stars By The Kindle Book Review.

READER'S FAVORITE

Dermot Davis's "Zen and Sex" is a great mix of man-woman relationship content, humor and Zen. It is actually about how far human beings go in trying to find their partners in life or their soul mates. Martin is in the process of learning how to have a meaningful relationship through Frances and her Zen principles on relationships. To my mind, the main focus of the book is how we deal with relationships in our age and time, and at the same time, trying not to lose ourselves. It is told in a humorous way, and it makes it is easy to see myself and my friends in the same situation as the characters in the novel. The story is told in the first person perspective and the narrator is Martin, so we get to look inside the male mind while he goes through this self discovery. As I turn the pages of the book, I cannot help but wonder what goes on in the head of Frances too. This book is a must for all of us who have experienced sadness as well as happiness in our romantic lives! Maria Beltran for Readers' Favorite
