Belle de Jour has, as they say, been around a bit. When Brooke Magnanti was unveiled as the author and former call girl behind the bestselling series, she turned her hand to a new game: newspaper punditry. In this collection of funny, fabulous, and touching entries spanning several years, she lifts the lid on everything from sexy romps in the Pentagon, to the unexpected death of a beloved uncle, how to blog anonymously (and how not to), and why she is Fifty Shades of Done With This S**t. Belle is as trenchant as ever and proof if proof were needed that you can't keep a good woman down."She lists like Hornby. She talks dirty like Amis. She has the misanthropy of Larkin and examines the finer points of sexual technique as if adjusting the torque on a beloved but temperamental old E-type." The Independent"The thinking man's dream girl" Clive James
