'Polyamory and ethical non-monogamy have entered the cultural mainstream over the past few years, showing up in TV shows like Couple to Throuple and The L Word, and within everyday discussions. Yet, despite polyamory’s long-standing history alongside monogamy, literature that gets into the nitty-gritty of it can be surprisingly hard to come by. That’s what makes Rochelle Siemienowicz’s latest book, Double Happiness, so refreshing. Rather than a sensationalised portrayal, Siemienowicz – who’s also a writer for ArtsHub‘s sister publication ScreenHub – offers an intimate approach, refusing to gloss over the hard emotional realities that come with it.'
