À propos de cet audio
Oh, the places a whore will go: Strip clubs, four-star hotels, stinking basement apartments, luxury cottages. A striking memoir by Andrea Werhun and Nicole Bazuin documents Andrea's sex work career in lush photography and powerful words—in all its slippery, sexy, silly and sometimes heartbreaking glory.
Andrea Werhun's sex work career gave her money, freedom, joy, and a lot of dick. A natural performer, she revelled in the opportunity to invent Mary Ann, her escort counterpart, and introduce her to men all over the city. She whores, she learns, she writes it all down, and then, as per a signed document she handed to her Catholic mother in her early twenties, she quits. To become a stripper.
Andrea and Nicole revisit the idea of the modern whore, with the enhanced perspective of Andrea's experience at the strip club. This new, engorged edition of the sold-out memoir-cum-art book expands on the original concept--a series of vignettes exploring the many identities sex workers adopt in the service of their clients and in the eyes of the public--in both a literal and literary way. But Andrea doesn't shy away from the serious side of sex work, either, exploring the risks sex workers take, and the rights our culture is constantly taking away from them.
This series of stories and portraits investigate the many ways we imagine—and mistake—the modern whore. It's Playboy if the Playmates were in charge.
Reading: Her intended voice, alongside vibrant character voices! The settings come alive.
Sex workers and civilians will be inspired. I will absolutely support her bid for Prime Minister!

The first half of this book follows the author’s experiences as an escort with top ten lists, rules to be an escort (according to the author) and glowing client reviews which are followed by the author’s boorish take on the review. Kind of boring with the exception of the disabled client section.
Part two (the best part of the book) is about her time as an exotic dancer. I wish she had spent more time telling stories from the club. Very insightful, sexy and funny.
There are a few unnecessary chapters about raping gods and St. Agatha which are in the book to pad the pages.
Pro - the author reads her own book and she has a great voice for audio books.
But she should not sing. Yes there is an entire song sung by the author (more filler)
All filler
