Or rather, I am told the way I describe my experience of time does not add up. I am so disconnected from any common meter that I remain in disbelief of that sort of containment.

Silt's dispatches-largely composed between June 2018 and October 2019 and first published as a monthly column in New Orleans' ANTIGRAVITY magazine-are already a cult classic in the movement for sex workers against work. Now collected in book form for the first time, with an additional essay written in 2022, The Tricking Hour is a vital account of sex, labor, and criminality in the twenty-first century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Deluge Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50719515050258,"sku":"9781736210451","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_26c202bb-756d-4b94-b912-238cfe7da220.jpg?v=1734668281","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-tricking-hour-9781736210451","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
