PUNK HOSTAGE PRESS

SHOWGIRL CONFIDENTIAL: MY LIFE ONSTAGE, BACKSTAGE,
AND ON THE ROAD
By Plesant Gehman

Showgirl Confidential chronicles just some of Pleasant Gehman’s amazing
adventures, from over thirty years spent constantly on the road. From
cross-country punk rock tours in the early 1980’s to her belly dancing
escapades in Cairo during the Arab Spring, from dressing room antics at
burlesque shows to unnerving paranormal experiences, this memoir is as
finely crafted as it is riveting. The easy finesse of her writing, her keen
memory and eye for detail will leave the reader devouring each story while
remaining hungry for more.
