{"product_id":"wetlands","title":"Charlotte Roche: Wetlands [2009] hardback","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith her jaunty dissection of the sex life and the private grooming habits of the novel's 18-year-old narrator, Helen Memel, Charlotte Roche has turned the previously unspeakable into the national conversation in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e          \u003cp\u003eSince its debut in February, the novel (\"Feuchtgebiete,\" in German) has sold more than a million copies, and is the biggest selling book on Amazon anywhere in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e          \u003cp\u003eThe book is a headlong dash through every crevice and byproduct, physical and psychological, of its narrator's body and mind. It is difficult to overstate the raunchiness of the novel. Wetlands opens in a hospital room after an intimate shaving accident. It gives a detailed topography of Helen's hemorrhoids, continues into the subject of anal intercourse and only gains momentum from there, eventually reaching avocado pits as objects of female sexual satisfaction and - here is where the debate kicks in - just possibly female empowerment. Clearly the novel has struck a nerve, catching a wave of popular interest in renewing the debate over women's roles and image in society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roche, Charlotte \u0026 Mohr, Tim","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":47725616103763,"sku":"XV80007296705","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/roche-charlotte-mohr-tim-wetlands-xv80007296705-54624271237459.jpg?v=1726427827","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.pro\/products\/wetlands","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
