Description
A striking memoir by Andrea Werhun and Nicole Bazuin documents Andrea's sex work career in lush photography and powerful words. The book explores the many identities sex workers adopt in the service of their clients and in the eyes of the public, and delves into the risks they take and the rights our culture is constantly taking away from them. Through a series of vignettes and portraits, the authors investigate the ways we imagine and mistake the modern whore. With unflinching honesty, Andrea shares her experiences in strip clubs, hotels, and other settings, revealing the complexities and nuances of sex work. This new edition expands on the original concept, offering a fresh perspective on the lives of sex workers and the cultural narratives that surround them. A powerful and thought-provoking work, Modern Whore A Memoir is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the complexities of sex work and the lives of those who engage in it.
