Ginger Price was a twenty-eight-year-old virgin and did not understand the basic mechanics of sex. In addition to abstaining from spreading her legs, Ginger avoided coffee, tea, and alcohol like the good Mormon girl she was raised to be.

My Dear Rapist is a collection of 43 letters to Ginger’s rapist that illustrate how a sheltered upbringing in Mormonism led to a woman’s worst nightmare.

It was a time of abundance, but also bitter rivalries.
