Prostitute Laundry

Autor Charlotte Shane
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 mai 2023
A Stylist 'Non-fiction You Can't Miss' selection for 2023This serial memoir follows Charlotte over the course of several years as she falls in and out of love, muses on the nature of sex work and the value of beauty, discovers hidden emotional complexities and contemplates leaving her profession. Growing out of a series of confessional letters sent by the author to a small but devoted mailing list, her candid, unstinting and sometimes heart-breaking meditations have gained thousands of subscribers and a cult status.Prostitute Laundry is a deeply thoughtful book about sensuality, money, and identity - how those forces can break us, and how they can make us whole again. By turns philosophical, funny and explicit, this is an affecting, immediate account of one life lived to its fullest.

Recenzii

Shane narrates . . . in a kind of gentle, considered past tense that makes each missive read as if it has been very sagely composed by a writer who has lived 50 years since . . . That's exactly what Dickens had a talent for, too.
Addictive, intimate . . .
[Prostitute Laundry] is so beautiful and so heartbreaking. It's a book that makes me feel a little less alone.
Stunning writing ... everything from high end sex work to the emotional labour of long-term relationships for women
Fast and fascinating ... feels spontaneous and emotionally fresh on every page ... a delicious must-read book
Prostitute Laundry is full of such precise observations; Shane's voice is decisive even as her decisions and feelings remain open to change.
