The subtitle of a contraceptive journey made me think this would be a completely different book. I thought it be about women’s reproduction or things going wrong with trying to have babies. Nope not in this book. This is about the authors time, and use of male contraceptive, particularly the heat method. This was very informative and interesting, and the author is originally from France, so some of the history is new to an American reader. Apparently, this is a web comic or was available other places before it was in print, and in the book’s the author talks about the hetero normative experience, which is, interesting. The author approaches it’s not just in a straightforward, clinical way, but with a personality and in a reference fun that makes you want to know what is going to happen next. Male contraception is almost never heard of besides vasectomies in the US, this was a very intriguing and interesting read. And this reader learned many, many new things.
