While a college student at The New School, Melissa Febos spent four years working as a dominatrix in a midtown dungeon. In poetic, nuanced prose, she charts in Whip Smart how unchecked risk-taking eventually gave way to a course of self-destruction. But as she recounts crossing over the very boundaries that she set for her own safety, she never plays the victim. In fact, the glory of this memoir is Melissa's ability to illuminate the strange and powerful truths that she learned as she found her way out of a hell of her own making.

Came for the salacious promise, stayed for the naked truth

I was attracted to the title, and to the obvious seductive physicality of the author. However, I was quickly disabused of that fantasy, which was replaced with appreciation and admiration for the keen intellect and rigorous honesty, reflected in the author, is telling of her story. There are deep truth revealed in this narrative. I have often said to others, the most powerful tool that you have in Your efforts to be an agent of change is your own story. Which smart is a beautiful example of this truth.
