Nonfiction. WHORE CARNIVAL is Shannon Bell's feminist genealogy of prostitution, linking the ancient Greek "hetaera"-the holy courtesan - to the sex industry workers of post-modern Babylon. In these interviews, pleasure texts and "cuntceptual" essays you'll meet the Art Tart and the Slut Goddess, the Scarlot Harlot and the Marquesa, the Dean of Students at the Academy For Boys Who Want To Be Girls, the Mistress of the House of Domination, and many more magical whores and hustlers, sex artists and porno-politicos, all of them with an eye - or some other body part - on the orgiastic issues of sexual and social insurrection.
