COURTESANS: RESERVE EDITION contains two novels: MEMOIRS OF A NEW YORK CALL GIRL and A PRODIGIOUS WOMAN. It has the same text as previous editions but comes with a different cover. In it, two young women in New York City, one with a Ph.D. in English Literature from Harvard, the other an M.D., Ph.D. from Cambridge, find they have talents that extend beyond their university degrees. Indeed, the number of women with their gifts in New York could probably be counted on two hands, if that. What Catherine Deneuve touched upon in Belle de Jour these women fully explore and bring the reader along with them. It is a sumptuous carnal feast for all involved.
