Riddle. "Hookers" by Richard F. Mann is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in the notable border town of Juarez, where we follow the journey of Pearl Jones, a young woman who arrives seeking to make a quick profit in the oldest profession while navigating the gritty realities of life as a sex worker. The book delves into the lives of its characters, capturing their struggles and ambitions amidst the chaotic environment of vice and desperation. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Pearl, fresh off a train in El Paso with aspirations of finding success in a new, liberated environment. The opening scenes depict her interactions with other women in the trade, particularly Evelyn, who offers her guidance on navigating Juarez's nightlife. As Pearl begins to find her way, she quickly learns the ins and outs of the local scene, including the necessity of obtaining a permit from the police to work legally. The story sets a tone of camaraderie and survival among the women, while also hinting at the darker aspects of their choices as they party and hustle through the night. The chaos of Juarez, along with the characters’ backstories and ambitions, creates a vibrant yet sobering backdrop for the unfolding tale.
