All Our Loves: Journeys with Polyamory in India is an eye-opening book on polyamory—the practice of being in love with or without sexual intimacies with more than one person simultaneously, with the consent of all—in India. For anyone who has ever dreamed of love, sex, and companionship beyond the limits of traditional monogamy, this groundbreaking guide navigates the infinite possibilities that open relationships can offer.
As a practising polyamorist, Arundhati Ghosh dispels myths and throws light on the skills necessary to maintain a fulfilling and responsible polyamorous lifestyle—how to honour boundaries; how to resolve conflicts, and define relationships on their own terms; how to divide time among partners; how to foster honest intimacy; how to find community and navigate break-ups, jealousy, and living arrangements; how to practise safe sex, raise a family; and much, much more.
Arundhati is a writer, cultural practitioner, social activist, and traveller. With three decades of experience in the arts and culture, she served as the executive director of India Foundation for the Arts (IFA) between 2013 and 2023.

She volunteers with citizen initiatives that work towards an equitable society; speaks on the arts and philanthropy across international platforms; and writes for various publications.
