Non-Fiction Memoir
A dark, wild, powerful memoir about a young woman’s
transformation from college student to professional dominatrix While a college student at The New School, Melissa Febos
spent four years working as a dominatrix in a midtown
dungeon. In poetic, nuanced prose she charts how unchecked
risk-taking eventually gave way to a course of
self-destruction. But as she recounts crossing over the very
boundaries that she set for her own safety, she never plays
the victim. In fact, the glory of this memoir is Melissa’s
ability to illuminate the strange and powerful truths that
she learned as she found her way out of a hell of her own
making. Rest assured; the reader will emerge from the
journey more or less unscathed.
