Alina is a 2006 novel by Northern Irish writer Jason Johnson.[1] When the eponymous character, an online sex worker or "cam whore", disappears, two mismatched travelling companions leave Belfast for Romania to find her.
The story addresses the abnormality of the underworld relationship between the post-communist east and capitalist west within Europe in the 21st century. It has been described as an exploration of "Ceaușescu's regime via allegory."[2]
