Through the lens of her years spent as a sex worker, Charlotte Shane offers a "rigorous and compulsively readable memoir" (New York magazine) exploring what it means to be a heterosexual woman and a feminist in a misogynistic society.

"A memoir of sex work that is also a poignant love story" -The Washington Post
In her early twenties, Charlotte Shane quit her women's studies graduate program to devote herself to sex work because it was a way to devote herself to men. Her lifelong curiosity about male lust, love, selfishness, and social capital dovetailed with her own insatiable desire for intimacy to sustain a long career in escorting, with unexpectedly poignant results.
Shane uses her "unsparing honestly" (The New York Times Book Review) and her personal and professional history to examine how men and women struggle in their attempts at a romantic and sexual bonding, no matter how true their intentions. As she takes stock of her relationships-with clients, with her father, with friends, with married men, and later, with her own husband-she tells a candid and haunting tale of love, marriage, and (in)fidelity, as seen through the eyes of the perpetual "other woman."
Braiding the personal and the universal, An Honest Woman is a merciless and moving love letter to men and an indictment of habitual dishonesty, a condemnation of every social constraint acting on heterosexual unions, and a hopeful affirmation of the possibility for true connection between men and women.
