A witty, erotic and sexually explicit memoir about a geeky English girl turned hard-nosed New York stripper. Sex and the City meets Belle de Jour - where the only thing that matters is how goddamned hot you are! 'If you wanna be a dancer in Flash Dancers,' says Bambi, eyeing me critically and punctuating the end of her sentence with a sharp snap of her hot-pink gum, 'you're gonna need a lot of help.' With a first-class degree from Cambridge, Mimi had the world at her feet. But in following her dreams of becoming a respected writer in New York, Mimi found herself jobless, desperate and with serious visa problems. With no one to turn to, Mimi did the only thing possible - she auditioned as a stripper at Flash Dancers. With the aid of a day-glo tan, a Brazilian wax, some clear plastic heels and a polyester slut dress, the goofy, geeky Cambridge girl, became tough dancer-girl Mimi. Her wise-cracking, explosive and sexy adventures of life as a Manhattan stripper are told with wit and a host of larger-than-life characters including Mr High Ranking U.N. official, Mafia Joe, Eton the bourgeois boyfriend and Bambi. Based on her in-your-face blog 'Mimi in New York', Mimi's story of her unravelling life is glamorous, seedy and shocking in equal parts.
