The Affair: A Four Week Experiment in Love

by Chad Leslie Peters

 

Paul is a tenured professor at a fabled California University who has hit a brick wall of personal and professional dissatisfaction. He decides to change his life forever by embarking on a unique sexual adventure that he hopes will clarify a number of personal issues. In the University cafeteria he meets Cara, a beautiful, young graduate student who is at a sexual crossroads of her own. Restless, curious and always open to new and unexpected experiences, Cara listens intently as Paul explains his fascinating and remarkable proposal.

 

He explains that he wishes to ‘explore the real possibilities of an affair – not of the heavy-heart and sweet romance variety, but of the flesh; a theme of desire and unbridled sexual satisfaction; a theme absent the peripheral complexities and deepest emotions.’ For the past few weeks, he has carefully mapped out his strategies. The objective: he will find a stranger – a young woman no more than 22 or 23 years of age – who will agree to connect in a pre-arranged four week sexual affair.

 

The two lovers will keep detailed records of their deepest private thoughts in journals of their experiences and these experiences will be shared only at the close of the affair – and only with one another. ‘I hope to gather evidence for the affair through experiences and through interpretation of those experiences,’ he tells her. ‘In this way, I anticipate breaking some kind of new ground. I would very much like you to help me with this project.’ The Affair reveals the graphic story of this four week encounter between the celebrated professor and his enthusiastic young student. It is brutally honest, occasionally heartbreaking and always fascinating.
