Love is a prose-poem account of a young woman, Libby, as she navigates life as a sex worker in Israel. The author shows us how easily lines can be crossed, how one can convince themselves that violence is intimacy, and objectification is real love.

I was able to read the manuscript in one sitting. It managed to be captivating and uncomfortable at the same time, and its short length allowed me to quickly become absorbed in Libby’s life. After reading, I decided to depict the lives of women under the gaze of men through subtly provocative images.
