A Whore’s Manifesto: An Anthology of Writing and Artwork by Sex Workers by Kay Kassirer Review

Though I didn’t take very many notes while I was reading this book, It really packed a punch. Not sure what I was getting myself into, I read haunting stories of coming into your own skin, sexual assault, hard work days and distant memories. Personal poems and short paragraphs and occasional pictures all meshed together, this book is definitely something that’s going to stick with me, whether on my shelf or just in my mind.

The thing I really liked about this book is that it’s different. Gritty non fiction, it shows the life around sex working, both good and bad. But above all, I think that this book is about finding yourself in whatever way you need to.

 

I don’t have much to say about this book, other than it’s really interesting and even if you don’t like non fiction, I think you should read it. It’s about real people doing real things and I think that even if it’s a little hard to look at, like some of the pages in this book, it’s worth it.
