Summary Of The Book Maria, traumatized by her previous unsuccessful forays into love, comes to the conclusion that to love is to suffer. She relocates from a village in Brazil to Geneva, Switzerland, hoping to attract fame and fortune by modelling. However, when the harshness of reality strikes her, she realises her dreams are moot. Despair and dwindling savings lead her to accept 1000 Francs from an Arab man, in return for a night of sexual favours.

At the brothel, she makes a few friends that teach her the tricks of the trade. She flourishes at her new job, carefully keeping her emotions at bay with clients.
