What Led Me Here:
-
Left behind a high-powered corporate career for sex work in Amsterdam — freedom over formality.
-
Started writing Through the Flesh while working as an escort.
-
A so-called friend outed me to my family. The fallout was brutal.
-
Forced back to Tel Aviv — tried “normal” again, even became CEO of a successful company.
-
But the mask cracked. I returned to dealing… and found David.
The Wildest Love of My Life:
David and I burned like fire. We were everything — intoxicating, terrifying, unforgettable. He became both my anchor and my undoing. Even now, I still speak to him. Even when he’s not here.
The Book & The Aftermath:
This book began as a blog — just truth spilled onto a screen. When it was finally published, my family nearly disowned me. They feared I’d reveal my name, ruin their image, shame them.
Yes, I spiraled again. Yes, I had another manic episode. But I still protected them — even when they never protected me.
“My only crime was being too much.
Too loud. Too queer. Too real.
I was punished — not for what I did —
but for refusing to hide it.”
“My only crime was being too much.

Meet Oz – Unfiltered, Unafraid, Unapologetically Real
I’m Oz — ex-corporate, ex-sex worker, ex-drug dealer. Diagnosed bipolar, living with borderline personality disorder, chronic anxiety, and depression. I’ve been hospitalized, sectioned, detoxed, and almost didn’t make it out. But I did — and I wrote it all down. This is my truth, raw and unedited. And it all began the day I met David.
My Story Starts With Chaos
My Story Starts With Chaos
David wasn’t just the love of my life — he was a full-blown addiction. Our relationship was pure mania: explosive, magnetic, and devastating. We were twin stars, caught mid-collapse. Lovers, best friends, co-addicts.
Even in all the madness — nothing compared to the high of being with him.

Oz Gold, once a powerful executive in the global corporate world, finds his life unraveling as he descends into a hallucinatory journey through Amsterdam, Tel Aviv, and Cyprus. Stripped of status and control, he is pulled into a raw and dangerous underworld of drug trafficking, sex work, psychiatric hospitals, addiction, and a near-suicide. Beneath the chaos lies a deeper hunger—for peace, meaning, and a body that finally feels like home.
At the center of the storm is David — not a romantic partner, but a prophecy, a mania, a love so radiant and consuming it heals and destroys in equal measure. Through the Flesh is a brutally honest monologue about trauma, identity, and survival. It dares to illuminate the darkest corners of human experience—queer desire, mental illness, exploitation, and the unyielding refusal to vanish, to be silenced, or to make things palatable.
Key themes:
-
Queer identity, trans experience, and HIV
-
Mental health, addiction, and psychiatric institutions
-
Love as prophecy: radiant, destructive, unforgettable
-
The refusal to disappear, apologize, or sanitize the truth
