À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Echo is a young actress, living on the coast of Los Angeles, grieving for her father who was swept out to sea. With no true friends, and a troubled relationship with her mother, she seeks solace in strangers. Strangers like Orly, a dominatrix, who moves in across the street. Through this unconventional relationship, Echo tests the boundaries of desire, and discovers her own means to healing.

Permission is a profoundly modern story about sex, power and loneliness. It is about people who turn to the erotic for comfort and cure, searching for an answer to that sacred question: how do I want to be loved?
