"The Devil..." is heavenly! I'm so thrilled to finally get to read about the life of this amazing, wonderful, sex Goddess and performer. She inspired me greatly, and changed my life forever for the better when I saw her for the first time in the Devil and Miss Jones. Georgina Spelvin has always been in a class by herself, and her book reflects that, because it is too. She generously gives readers a great feel (pun intended) for the Golden Age of porn, and what life and sexuality was like in the 60's/70's for the sexually liberated and talented. This book is also very relevant for today's world. I've read and enjoyed many sex worker autobiographies, and this is certainly one of the best--and perhaps the most sincere and from the heart of them all. Well written too!

-Annie Sprinkle, Ph.D.--Huge Georgina Spelvin admirer. Porn star turned artist/sexologist.

Georgina Spelvin writes with a dry wit and humor. She writes as though she's talking to you personally and telling you a really funny and shocking story. Her writing style reminds me of a cross between Mark Twain and D. H. Lawrence (Lady Chatterley's Lover). It's like the down home humor of back fence gossip and cracker barrel stories delivered with a naughty flavor.

When she writes about her sexual escapades, she does so with straightforward honesty and humor that is racy, sensual and erotic without being phony, vulgar or fake. The way she includes her thoughts in various situations, like a written stage whisper, is a real hoot!

And when she talks about the times that are less than rosy, even downright ugly, she does it without pulling any punches, and without looking for pity, thank you so very much! Yet, even then she finds some humor such that you smile as you grimace (that's not easy, let me tell you!)

I have no literary credentials, but I love to read. I loved this book, and I think you will too!
