Modern Whore is a provocative collection of stories and photographs inspired by one Millennial woman’s adventures in escorting. The stories are illustrated by a series of conceptual portraits. A playful, sex-positive artwork, Modern Whore explodes whore-culture wide open within the sex industry, entertainment world, and beyond.
Praise for Modern Whore:
This is everything you could want a book to be — it’s moving, entertaining, funny, and smart. And underneath it all are important ideas about rights and how people should treat each other. I want every literate person on the planet to read it!
– Chester Brown, cartoonist, Paying For It
Modern Whore is a breath of fresh air! An honest, sophisticated, nuanced, sex worker memoir that raises the bar and creates its own new genre. Plus it’s a sexy work of art by two talented, bright shining stars. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
– Annie Sprinkle, author, Explorer’s Guide to Planet Orgasm
Our society has a few mental prisons surrounding the way we think about sex and Modern Whore is attempting some kind of jailbreak. I have no clue where Andrea and Nicole are taking us, but social scientists may want to pay attention.
– Nicholas Gurewitch, cartoonist, Playboy, Perry Bible Fellowship
