Lihi drew the red curtain wide open, countless eyes turning to stare at her, some at her face, most at her bare body. She ignored the zoo visitors, took a seat on the black barstool, closed her eyes, and spun around like a little girl, again and again and again, spinning on the merry-go-round that was her life. It all started in Tel Aviv. Lihi, a young Israeli girl of twenty-one, once a soldier in a combat unit, now an art student in Amsterdam. With the money running out, hunger eating at her, and the future shrouded in uncertainty, Lihi turns to the female butcher shops of the red-light district. Lihi is prettier than everyone, younger than everyone, skinnier than everyone, but also tougher than everyone, an Israeli princess from a good family who was now the princess of the red district.
The readers are led into the inner sanctums of the red-light district and are exposed to what takes place behind the red curtains. This book is young, wild and kicking, dealing with an explosive, outrageous subject. Some will get angry, others will despise it, and some might even feel sick, but this book is human, real and faithful, and is intertwined with the longing for freedom throughout.
