About the book

The follow up to Sub Rosa (Arsenal Pulp Press, 2013), Amber Dawn's acclaimed novel about an underground sex society. Lambda Literary Award winner Amber Dawn's sophomore book reveals a poignant and personal landscape - the terrain of sex work, queer identity and survivor pride. This memoir is told in prose and poetry, offering a frank, multifaceted portrait of the author's experience, from hustling the streets of Vancouver in the mid-90s to her present life as an outspoken feminist storyteller.
