Lust in Translation

“Lust in Translation” is a book written by Pamela Druckerman. It is an irreverent and hilarious journey around the world to examine how and why people cheat on their spouses. The book explores the rules of infidelity from Tokyo to Tennessee, and how these rules differ radically from country to country. Druckerman interviews people from all over the world, including retirees in South Florida, Muslim polygamists in Indonesia, Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn, and men who keep their mistresses in a “concubine village” outside Hong Kong.
