Sterry and R.J. Martin"Publisher's noteAn anthology of personal accounts by people from all walks of life who have exchanged sex for money offers insight into their former prospects and motivations and includes contributions by art-porn priestess Dr. Annie Sprinkle, Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl's Tracy Quan, and best-selling memoirist David Henry Sterry. Original. AnnotationDavid Henry Sterry (CHICKEN) has compiled an anthology of real-life tales from worker's in the world's oldest profession. The voices are varied, from porn goddesses to street corner gay hustlers, and the stories range from funny and titillating to raunchy and tragic. Naturally, the quality of the prose is mixed-bag, and some of the stories can be dreary or familiar, but over the course of the book an astonishingly rich and intriguing portrait emerges of the hidden world where sex, money, and desire meet. HOS, HOOKERS, CALL-GIRLS, AND RENT BOYS reveals the humanity and drama of the people who live and work in this erotic economy. The only thing the writers in this book have in common is that they've exchanged sex for money. They're PhDs and dropouts, soccer moms and jailbirds, $2,500-a-night call girls and $10 crack hos, and everything in between. This anthology lends a voice to an underrepresented population that is simultaneously reviled and worshipped. Hos, Hookers, Call Girls, and Rent Boys is a collection of short memoirs, rants, confessions, nightmares, journalism, and poetry covering life, love, work, family, and yes, sex. The editors gather pieces from the world of industrial sex, including contributions from art-porn priestess Dr. Annie Sprinkle, Tracy Quan (author of Diary of a Manhattan Call Girl), best-selling memoirist David Henry Sterry (Chicken: Self-Portrait of a Young Man for Rent), women and men right off the streets, girls participating in the first-ever National Summit of Commercially Sexually Exploited Youth, and Ruth Morgan Thomas, one of the organizers of the European Sex Work, Human Rights, and Migration Conference. Sex is a billion-dollar industry. Meet the real people who are its flesh and blood.
