About this listen

Step back to 1929 with Is Sex Necessary?, a satirical spoof on the era’s obsession with psychoanalysis and forbidden topics. E.B. White and James Thurber, masters of wit, deliver a faux-scientific treatise on the “mysteries” of sex, skewering outdated gender roles and societal norms with sharp humor. This audiobook, narrated by a modern voice, offers a glimpse into a time capsule, complete with its absurd theories and delightfully dry satire. Prepare for a tongue-in-cheek romp through the absurdities of human behavior and a humorous reflection of a bygone era.
