Description
Nothing But My Body is a thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of love, obsession, and community through the eyes of a young woman navigating her life as a queer sex worker in Australia.
The story spans eight days, moving between Sydney, Berlin, Orange, and Bellingen, and is set against the backdrop of the bushfire season of 2019 and into the coronavirus pandemic. As the protagonist navigates break-ups, infatuations, and her own mental health, sex work becomes a constant presence in her life.
This powerful novel ultimately rejects romantic love, celebrates queer community, and reckons with the body as both abject and joyous, offering a unique perspective on the interplay between our external and internal worlds.
