Book SynopsisTrade ReviewCRITICAL ACCLAIM for Dork Whore: “Girl meets boy, girl meets another boy, and girl meets another boy . . . My kind of book! Dork Whore is hilarious. It’s like listening to a drunk friend tell you all the embarrassing stuff she’ll regret the next day.” —Chelsea Handler “Like Bruce Chatwin with a vagina, Paul Theroux with a sense of humor, Iris Bahr takes an external and internal journey that is exotic, unique, singular, personal, intimate, honest, exciting, wildly funny, smart, and strangely arousing.”—Larry Charles, director of Borat and producer of Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm “Much about Ms. Bahr can be learned in her gracefully titled memoir, Dork Whore: My Travels Through Asia as a Twenty-Year-Old Pseudo-Virgin. The subtitle cannot be fully explained here, nor can her unpleasant experience in the audience at a Bangkok sex show, nor her exquisitely detailed gastrointestinal troubles, nor her repeated attempts to bring to an end her pseudo-virginal status.” —New York Times “Bahr has a flair for the self-deprecating wisecrack, a trick that keeps this quick memoir moving.” —Kirkus Reviews “Witty . . . Touching.” —Publishers Weekly
