A curiousity,

This review is from: All the Girls (Mass Market Paperback)
I can still remember where I bought a copy of this book -- cheap, off one of those carts that used book stores wheel out onto the sidewalk on days it's not raining: a shop just below (east of) Government Center in Boston, very close to the Suffolk County Courthouse you get glimpses of every week on "Ally McBeal" and "The Practice."The book was originally published by the respected British firm Macmillan in 1982, but probably didn't stay in print very long. The author, an English journalist, assayed to visit and patronize brothels across the globe. Not terribly titillating, as I recall, and of interest only to those in a particular frame of mind, the book is decently written and has its moments. ... The author mostly reports his observations and experiences in a dispassionate and slightly wide-eyed manner, although he allows a little pathos through when the women voice it. An oddity that may not be for everyone's bookshelf.... |
