When Céleste Mogador's memoirs were first published in 1854 and again in 1858, they were immediately seized and condemned as immoral and unsuitable for public consumption. For a reader in our more forgiving times, this extraordinary document offers not on

Memoirs of a Courtesan in Nineteenth-Century Paris

I had to read this book for a history course about nineteenth-century Europe. If you're looking for a glimpse into the life of a prostitute, then this book will definitely do.

Everything comes out in this book, and it will show you a side of prostitution that you very well might not have known existed. I probably wouldn't have read this book if not for my professor's assignment, but I'm glad that I came across it. I understand the other side of life a little better now.
