Pornstar Books - Goodreads

The book offers a fresh perspective on pornography by considering its plurality, unlike the polarized debates of the mid-twentieth century. For all but the dedicated porn fan, the name Georgina Spelvin may not mean that much but this erotic icon of the 1970s was the star of a classic porno movie, The Devil in Miss Jones. Released in 1973, this ‘porno chic’ movie was shot by the same director as Deep Throat and is widely regarded as one of the most iconic movies of the Golden Age of Porn.Canyon, one of the most successful and lusted-after stars of the 1980s, recounts her adventures with other famous porn stars and even shares some surprising encounters with mainstream celebrities. Books about porn stars could be useful and educational for several reasons: 1. Pornography is a part of modern culture Jenna Jameson is the world’s most recognized porn star. My personal experience with Jenna was with a strong woman in control of herself and her surroundings. She knew what she wanted and wasn’t afraid to be the boss. As a porn newbie, I looked up to her. Yet her story of drug abuse, loneliness and controlling men proves she wasn’t the role model I perceived her to be. She offers advice to would-be porn stars and glorifies her decisions, including some of the poorer ones. Her lifestyle is glamorized to a degree, which I understand having lived through it myself; there are aspects of glamour. After reading this, I realize now just how fragile that strong woman was. All she wanted in the beginning was to be a Vegas showgirl, just like the mom she never knew. What she got was a painful journey to adult superstardom. (Jenna could not be reached for comment.) Famous for her role in Deep Throat, Linda Lovelace airs her dark secrets and life of tragedy. Her memoir is a tale of despair, and some even consider it an anti-porn piece. Lovelace writes of how she was forced into doing porn and prostitution by her insanely abusive husband. It strips away the glamour of the ’70s porn era and reveals the exploitations of a woman beaten. This is one of the darker adult memoirs.
