Survivor

Martina Keogh's story is one of resilience and courage in the face of abuse and absolute deprivation. When she was five years old, her stepfather sexually abused her. At eight years of age, she was coerced into prostitution and forced to work in a seedy Dublin brothel. At 15, she started selling her body on the streets of Dublin. She worked the streets for the next 30 years. She survived the weekly beatings, the rapes, the pimps and the ordeal of selling her body to survive. Her story will change readers' perceptions of prostitution irrevocably.
