The Intimate Adventures of a London Call Girl

"It occurs to me that in a world of twelve-year-olds in sexy boots and nans in sparkly minidress, the surest way to tell the prostitute walking into a hotel is to look for the lady in the designer suit". Belle de Jour is the nom de plume of a high-class call girl working in London. This is her story. From the summer of 2003 to the autumn of 2004 Belle charted her day-today adventures on and off the field in a frank, funny and award-winning web diary. Now, in her Intimate Adventures, Belle elaborates on those diary entries, revealing (among other things) how she became a working girl, what it feels like to do it for money, and where to buy the best knickers for the job. From debating the literary merits of Martin Amis with naked clients to smuggling whips into luxury hotels, this is a no-holds-barred account of the high-class sex-trade, and an insight into the secret life on an extraordinary woman.
