I Lost My Virginity to a Drug-Dealing Nurse
An unflinching tale of sexual awaking, Irish style. Ben Keaton looks back on the miracle of how he lost his virginity — not in a romantic blur of youth, but with a drug-dealing nurse in Holloway in 1970s London. It's a story of hope rewarded, jacket potatoes, and the kind of sex education they never taught in school.
