Dirty Story is a 2003 play by John Patrick Shanley. It allegorically presents the political relationship between Israel and Palestine as a sexual, sadomasochistic relationship between a man and a woman. This turbulent relationship is refereed by a gun toting, cigarette selling American cowboy and his snide British side-kick. The Off-Broadway premiere was well reviewed by the New York Times.

Dirty Story is a 1967 novel by Eric Ambler. The book continues the story of Ambler's anti-hero, the half-caste petty criminal Arthur Abdel Simpson who took part in a daring Istanbul robbery in Ambler's earlier The Light of Day. In this book, Simpson is forced by circumstance to take up a career as a mercenary for a cynical mining company in Central Africa. Simpson is a misfit unsuited for the role of mercenary, yet he manages to outwit his far tougher professional colleagues, and to keep the reader's sympathy as an engaging rogue.
