Pitt-Kethley, Fiona

Red Light Districts of the World

In Red Light Districts of the World, Fiona Pitt-Kethley, well-known poet and satirist, scrutinises the underbellies of sixteen countries, from Dublin to Tel Aviv, Toronto to Tokyo. On her travels, she interviews postitutes, policemen, punters, brothel-keepers and sex-shop owners. She spectates in a brothel, interviews during a live sex act and goes undercover in a variety of different guises, including a male punter, a massage parlous owner and a Methodist missionary. This is the book the literary world didn't want published. Find out why.
