Over a decade of experience
In this groundbreaking collection of essays, Alex Alberto takes us on an intimate decade-long journey through the complexities of building a polyamorous family. With the authenticity that our community craves, Alberto navigates the delicate balance of maintaining multiple committed relationships while exploring their own identity and challenging traditional relationship structures.
Keeping it real
From kitchen table polyamory to parallel poly dynamics, "Entwined" doesn't shy away from the real challenges of consensual non-monogamy. Through innovative storytelling formats including a play, an advice column, and a heartfelt love letter, Alberto explores the beautiful mess of creating authentic connections beyond the boundaries of conventional relationship escalators.
Not another "Poly 101" Guide
Whether you're practicing solo polyamory, building a polycule, or just poly-curious, this collection offers a fresh perspective on family-building that transcends traditional narratives. Alberto's exploration of metamour relationships, relationship anarchy principles, and the intersection of polyamory with queer identity makes this an essential addition to any CNM library.
