Having read the original Dutch book, I found no evidence of "Bird" being or ever having been a prostitute - she goes into the desert at Eilat to research some kind of rat, and goes to the university of Göttingen to do further research there, which led me to believe she may be a biologist. I find it hard to believe that the English version would be that fundamentally different? 83.134.93.163 (talk) 21:32, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
