Elizabeth Hendrick
EXODAI is the first memoir ELIZABETH HENDRICK has published. She was compelled to write about her struggles with her sexuality and narrate the story of how she eventually learnt to love herself, placing particular emphasis on her S&M relationship with a Japanese dominatrix. Elizabeth believes her story will be of value not just to LGBTQ+ and BDSM communities, but to all individuals who have been ostracised during their adolescence and whose lack of self-love is sabotaging their adult lives. It’s also an intriguing peek behind the curtain of Tokyo’s exotic and sometimes shocking BDSM underworld.
