“A swift, smooth, contemplative and frequently hilarious travelogue through America’s surprisingly mainstream nether regions.”
Arthur Salm, Books Editor, San Diego Union-Tribune
“Scintillating. The author’s thoughtful observations on the need for contact at all costs in an increasingly virtual society ring true.”
The Washington Post
“For anyone curious about the state of sexuality in America, this smart, intriguing tour will scratch your (intellectual) itch.”
Publisher’s Weekly
“A clear-headed and open-minded look at the sexual revolution’s final stage.”
Kirkus Reviews
“Eye-openingly smart… Picking up where Sallie Tisdale’s TALK DIRTY TO ME left off in the ’90s, Brian Alexander’s AMERICA UNZIPPED appreciatively unpacks our culture’s last remaining sexual taboos. (Apparently, we’ve still got a few).”
Genevieve Field, co-founder of Nerve.com
“… with both humor and reflection, Alexander sees exhilarating liberation but also a kind of ‘kitschy banalty’: Where’s the excitement when our thrills are no longer taboo?”
Matthew Hutson, Psychology Today
“[Alexander’s] voice is sensible, humorous and largely unbiased, even when he is aghast.”
Bookgasm.com
“Alexander himself is at least as interesting as the people he observed and interviewed…America Unzipped is entertaining. Alexander has a gift for narrative, and he’ s not afraid to put himself in the story.”
