The stories in Eight Pieces on Prostitution span the whole of Dorothy Johnston's writing life and includes her first published story, *The Man Who Liked to Come with the News, *which Frank Moorhouse chose for his 1983 anthology, The State of the Art.
Dorothy Johnston's first novel, Tunnel Vision, was set in a Melbourne massage parlour, and the theme of prostitution runs through several of her works, notably in The House at Number 10 and now in this collection of short stories. Many of the stories are set in Canberra, Australia's national capital, where Dorothy lived for thirty years before returning to Victoria's Bellarine Peninsula.
