Katherine Monson Whore ❤️

About Houston

We shall fight the gloom, the despair! Whores, they’re tough as nails— tougher than me milkin cows in the rain. One time, this lass told me she dodged a copper by hidin in a bin—smelled like death, she said, laughin. “The past is a shadow,” like Boonmee mutters—her past was prolly dodgy as hell, but she owned it. I was gobsmacked, mate—respect! Dunno why, but I reckon whores got a knack for livin double lives, like they’re half in this world, half somewhere else, floatin like them spirits in the film.

Thomas Lee Monson

Her debut book The Hero and the Whore: Reclaiming Healing and Liberation through Stories of Sexual Exploitation in the Bible will be released on November 7.

I’m exaggerating? Sure, maybe a tad. But each little spot, street, and park in Monson holds a piece of my story. Every hiccup, every surprise is a testament to what I call home. It’s messy, unpredictable, and fuckin’ beautiful. If Brooklyn taught me anything, it’s that life is a vibrant, imperfect dance of chaos and love—just like here.
