-2013 LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD WINNER FOR DEBUT NOVEL-
NIK NICHOLSON
Seeking Sex Without Armor
In December 2015, spoken-word artist and poet Nik Nicholson released her debut poetry collection, Seeking Sex Without Armor. Those who've seen Nicholson perform were surprised her first independent project was a novel, as Nicholson started her writing career as a poet.
Seeking Sex Without Armor, is a brutally honest narrative of captivating rhythms and sublime passion. This courageously vulnerable offering is bound to illuminate each soul it encounters, affirming Nicholson’s distinctive voice.
Out of a culture and faith that objectifies girls and women while starving their spirits, Nicholson’s sojourn for love, transcends race, sex, gender, orientation and religion. It is a spiritual yearning.
