Press Reviews

A review of Maya Golden's book The Return Trip.

"Eloquent and impassioned, personal and political, The Return Trip vividly describes Golden’s descent into an addiction to pornography and obsessive sexting and covers her circuitous path toward healing and sound mental health. It’s simultaneously gut-wrenching, hopeful and insightful."
