À propos de cet audio
“Drag embodies the queer possibility that exists within each of us—the infinite ways in which gender, good taste, and art can be lived.”
–Sasha Velour
This book is a quilt, piecing together memoir, history, and theory into a living portrait of an artist and an art. Sasha Velour illuminates drag as a unique form of expression with a rich history and a revolutionary spirit.
Each chapter strips off a new layer, removing one tantalizing glove and then another, to reveal all the twists and turns in the life of a queen. As Sasha recalls her own journey, from the women who raised her, to learning the craft of an artist, to success, disaster, and more, she also uncovers the history of queer life around the world that made it all possible.
From shamans to “fairies balls,” empresses to RuPaul’s Drag Race (and beyond), The Big Reveal chronicles and celebrates our shared queer pasts. “If we want to be seen as legendary,” writes Sasha, “we have to weave ourselves into history.”
From an iconoclastic drag queen comes an equally singular, thought-provoking manifesto that brings necessary and sparkling substance to our understanding of drag, queerness, beauty, and liberation!
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

What I Needed to Hear
Sasha is an wonderful artist. I fell in love with her after watching her win Drag Race and she is still my favourite. I’ve been asked why I love drag so much. I’ve had close friends feel it’s makes a mockery of women. I’ve always felt the opposite and didn’t know how to put it in words. After listening to Sasha’s story I know how to best describe my feelings about drag and how it’s more of a celebration of the sexes then not. Thank you for the book and thank you for narrating it. I can only hope that one day I can be so lucky to see a Sasha Velour show. If not this is the next best thing.
