Bokbeskrivning:
Beasley, who spent eight years as a professional lapdancer, regularly brought a camera to the clubs and began recording testimoneis from managers, dancers and patrons. The result is this inside look at the world of professional nude dancers, culled from thousands of photographs and endless hours of interviews. This is an unsentimental look at an oft-caricatured but rarely understood universe, which uncovers a treasure-trove of fin-de-siecle metaphors for sexuality, gender politics, capitalism, therapy - and even love. Illustrated with 163 full-colour photos.
