The publisher blurb accompanying Rufi Thorpe’s latest novel (see also The Girls from Corona Del Mar, The Knockout Queen) shouts breathlessly that it is a story about OnlyFans, young single motherhood and pro-wrestling.
It’s a uniquely confusing combination which won’t be for everyone. There are scenes, for example, which see our protagonist Margo Millet critiquing dick pics on OnlyFans for $20 a pop using Pokemon characters. “Congratulations! Your penis is a Tentacruel! With bulging pink glans and glittering dark blue veins, your penis is filled with quiet menace. When that mushroom tip glows red, you know he’s about to attack.” See? Not for everyone.
