Hustling Verse
An Anthology of Sex Workers’ Poetry
In this trailblazing anthology, more than fifty self-identified sex workers from Canada, the US, Europe, and Asia, from all walks of the industry (survival and trade, past and present) explore their lived experience through the evocative nuance and beauty of poetry. These authors express themselves with the complexity, agency, and honesty that sex workers are rarely afforded.Â
Hustling Verse is an antidote to the invasive and often biased media depictions of sex workers and a fiercely groundbreaking exploration of intimacy, transactional sex, identity, healing, and resilience.
