Reflections of a revolutionary whore and champion of sexual freedom and prostitutes' rights. They have to come back to us, because we know every detail of their orgasms, their little caprices, their little weaknesses and strengths. We know all of them. I mean, where do you expect them to go? They'll be disappointed anywhere else. Except for with us, because we know them like the back of our hand. As soon as they get in the door, it's like we'd made them ourselves. We know all the right things to say, all the gestures, there're no surprises. -from The Little Black Book of Griselidis Real The Little Black Book of Griselidis Real is the portrait of a true humanist who made a career out of compassion. Hailed as a virtuoso writer and a revolutionary whore, Griselidis Real (1929-2005) chanced into prostitution at thirty-one after an upper-class upbringing in Switzerland. Serving clients from all walks of life, Real applied the anarcho-Marxist dictum from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs to her profession, charging sliding-scale fees determined by her client's incomes and complexity of their sexual tastes. Real went on to become a militant champion of sexual freedom and prostitutes' rights. She has described prostitution as an art, and a humanist science, noting that the only authentic prostitution is that mastered by great technical artists...who practice this form of native craft with intelligence, respect, imagination, heart... This volume includes lengthy dialogues from 1979-1981 with Real conducted by journalist and author Jean-Luc Henning, in which she eloquently discusses the theoretical implications of sex-positive whoring and relates her experiences both inside and outside the profession: from her lengthy love affair with the Berber to such psychological and special clients as the moldy rhinoceros. The Little Black Book that rounds out this book is drawn from the logs in which Real kept track of her many clients, from Pedro, hilarious fat Spaniard, devoted, simple, honest, fat peasant face, 70F to Pierre 8 (from Basel), blue eyes, fifties, slightly balding, cultivated, sweet-violent...licks my finger after I remove it from his anus...100-400F. It is a journal that not only chronicles Real's working life, but offers a clinically direct, investigative sociological analysis of the sexual subcultures of her time.
