She liked the show and approached the artist to do a show in Holland as well. It was a one-man show about his trip from Moscow to Petuskey. Xaviera tells us that she used to go to the Edinburgh Theatre Festival. In the book, she talks about the twists and turns her life looks at different stages. The book is centered around the life of Xavier Hollander. She has authored many books and has also co-authored a book with Robin Moore called ‘The Happy Hooker’ which became the best-selling book of its time. She did it because she felt it was the right thing to do. Xaviera Hollander was in the prostitution business for many years. Not only her vocals are carefree, but her actions too are quite bold. She speaks what she finds right without the fear of being judged. She doesn’t care about being politically correct or what others think about her. Xaviera Hollander is pretty bold and straightforward. Well, our guest for today is none other than Xaviera. It's distracting and sloppy.This episode of The Brand Called You starts with our host, Lisa Lipkin sharing her story of the time she was living in New York City and how a phone call with Xaviera Hollander changed her life. Whole words are replaced with other words ("the" and "die" get switched a lot) and the spelling errors are atrocious (the letter "n" is randomly replaced with "k" in a few places). There are sentences and paragraphs that are unreadable for the typos. You can't have it both ways!Īlso, whoever did the editing on the ebook did a TERRIBLE job. She clearly doesn't think this is fair, nor does she give them any kind of discount, but she later laments that she doesn't get discounts on services that she uses regularly (I think she was discussing her lawyer or the bugger, I don't quite recall). She also complains about how some of her regular customers seem to always want a price cut, as it were, on her services because they are regulars. But in the next chapter she describes a lavish vacation to an exclusive resort with her boyfriend and lover. She spends quite some time describing to the reader her expenses as a madam, and how people always assume she has a lot of money when she doesn't.
The subject matter is interesting and the book is refreshingly sex-positive, but there are many things about "The Happy Hooker" that turned me off.įor one, Xaviera contradicts herself quite often, which takes away from the story quite a bit. On the whole, a pretty disappointing read.
