In development now, this unusual book will show models in desperate and erotic circumstances. Using those two words, Harke is coining a new word: Desperotic. "I was inspired to create this book when I observed the work of one particular model whose portfolio of images seemed to speak to me on those levels ... desperate and erotic. I  found the concept mesmerizing. That's when I decided to create Desperotic." This new book will be published in 2011 and will be announced here first.
