Sex is Forbidden
Trauma leaves Beth with no alternative but to bury herself in the austere asceticism of a community that wakes at 4am, doesn't permit eye contact or speech, and keeps men and women segregated. But the curious self dies hard, and the more Beth yearns for purity, the more she feels desire. Setting western individualism against Buddhist belief, THE SERVER is both riveting and highly entertaining.
