Belle De Jour is the pseudonym of a high-class call girl working in London. This is her memoir.

For nearly two years, Belle charted her day-to-day adventures in and out of the bedroom in a frank, funny and award-winning blog. Now in this riveting international bestseller and Showtime original series starring Billie Piper, Belle reveals (among other things) how she, a university-educated woman, became a working girl, what it feels like to have sex for money, and where to buy the best knickers for the job. From chatting about literature with naked clients, to smuggling whips into luxury hotels, Belle offers a no-holds-barred account of the high-class sex trade that will open doors to places you’ve never seen before.

Genre:

  • "Sometimes shocking, always lively and amusing, Belle is a real Moll Flanders for the 21st century. Her honesty makes for compelling reading."
    Waterstone's Books Quarterly
  • "Belle's writing is fluid and funny and it's hard not to admire her total disregard for what others think. You go girl!"
    Shauna Bartlett, Glamour
  • "In between appointments, Belle slots in real dates and holidays, and treats us to excerpts from her 'A-Z Of London Sex Work': tips on how to chat to clients ('Lie your head off. Think of it as proving ground for a future political career'), where to buy your knickers, and how to smuggle whips into hotels."
    Hephizibah Anderson, Daily Mail
  • "It's frank, funny and completely addictive...Sometimes shocking, often hilarious, this is a definite must-read of an insight into the secret life of an extraordinary, ordinary woman. You won't be able to put it down."
