This review is from: Concertina: The Life and Loves of a Dominatrix (Paperback)
I saw this memoir in a used bookstore, and seriously, how could I pass it up? "Concertina" is the story of the author's life as a chef/dominatrix in London. Now I do not consider myself a prude by any sense of the word, but let me tell you, this book is SUPER graphic...enough to make even me shudder a bit. Still, props to the writer for giving readers such an honest and detailed account of what is really a rather disgusting profession...there is nothing glamourous about it in ANY way. This is actually a very well-written memoir, but just be warned that it is very, ahem, detailed, and not all people will appreciate that. Still, what can you really expect from a memoir of a dominatrix?!

4.0 out of 5 stars Provocative and Interesting Read, April 9, 2007
Susan Winemaker's plunges the reader into Anna's life as a Chef, dom/top, and woman. I really enjoyed how the writing would veer between her writing about cooking and then move in italics to her sessions with Bernie or some other client. The cooking pieces were my favourite, since not only does she have a way with words, but it was truly delicious to have detail what she was going to make or what she was merely thinking about cooking.

This isn't a torrid love story in the fashion of _Story of O_, but it does have it's lurid pockets for those who care.

This is Winemaker's first book and I look forward to her next.
