La Maison

In this semi-autobiographical novel, La Maison, Emma Becker recounts her two years working in a Berlin brothel, seeking both income and literary inspiration. With frankness and emotional depth, she explores not only her sexual encounters but the bonds, routines, and quiet strength shared among the women who work there. Blending memoir and fiction, Becker challenges stereotypes about sex work and offers a bold, compassionate look at desire, agency, and female solidarity.
