Though a stand-alone work that is meant to be read by itself, this writing arose out of the ashes of the theme of the original work- my first book-, Memoirs of a Traditional Woman’s Rights Activist, whose description is reprinted here for background:
A heart torn between duty to her husband and family and her growing, all-consuming love for another man- her father-in-law- who plays cruel games with her mind and her heart, Memoirs of a Traditional Woman's Rights Activist is the story of a young married woman's tumultuous journey into womanhood, political activism, and love for two different men- both father and son… Innocently romantic, passionate, and compelling; Memoirs of a Traditional Woman's Rights Activist speaks straight to the very heart of a woman.
Though drawing on this basic theme, gone from this book are any references to my life before my husband. Also gone are any references to any past political involvement or activism of any sort on my behalf. This book is concerned with none of the latter. Rather, this work is purely a love story- my own.
The story begins during the summer whenever I was only 16 years old; the summer that I met my husband. This book is a love story that traces all of the time that I spent with my husband as a teenager, to where I became pregnant, to where we married, and it traces all of the dramas with my father-in-law- the main subject of the first book- who, until his ultimate death, wreaked untold havoc upon our lives for years.
It's a story that’s anti-feminist. It’s a story that comes from the perspective of a feminine and traditional woman. It’s a story that comes from the heart; a story that tells how a deeply feminine and traditional woman feels inside. It’s a story replete with moral and life lessons from a traditionalist perspective. It’s a story that tells how I’ve always felt depending on my husband since I was so young, how I have always felt about my role in the home, about motherhood, and about my life with my husband.
It is a story and a narrative that also speaks about sexual fulfillment and attraction, and contentment in the home, the way it is never told in the mainstream media. But in addition to being a love story, the book also dwells on important life lessons in the areas of seduction, sexuality- particularly female sexuality-, sex, marriage, and male-female relationships. There were also many facts unknown to me at the time of the writing on my first book, as well as subsequent developments in time, that ultimately change the entire story. As such, Memoirs Revisited is an entirely different story- and a story that bears little, if any, resemblance to its predecessor.
This work is also much darker in both its mood and tone, at times being somewhat crude, explicit, vulgar, and even violent. There is also a much stronger patriarchal undercurrent, being both unabashed and unapologetic in nature, that runs throughout the work. Nothing else could ever so perfectly capture my heart and soul. My only hope is that it might forever capture yours as well…
