All adult speakers in Western cultures have life stories argues Charlotte Linde, and the ways in which these life stories are formed and exchanged with others have a powerful effect on all of us. Life stories express our sense of self, who we are and how we got that way. According to Linde, we also use these stories to show that our lives can be understood as coherent, and to assert or negotiate group membership. These life stories take part in the highest level of social constructions, since they are built on cultural assumptions about what is expected in a life, what the norms for a successful life are, and what common or special belief systems are necessary to establish coherence.

Going Down Under is the transcript of a 10-Day Residential Sex & Relationship seminar that was delivered in Australia by Gregory Charles, The Aussie Relationship Guru. Is for anyone who is seeking deeper meaning and answers to a wide range of issues around the core topics of sex and relationships. So far it has been read by couples (who state it helped save their marriage), college students and other singles and couples from age 19 to 60 and has been greatly valued. The book is a necessary response to a dearth of meaningful information in a plethora of superficial, time-worn, moralistic answers to the issues of sex and relationships and their place in our lives. Especially in America, Gregory’s direct and honest Aussie approach has been welcomed as an antidote to the politically correct, judgmental puritanism that permeates this culture. Starting with the name, the content brings a wry sense of humor to matters that are usually treated as being heavy and serious.
