How You Get Famous
Author: Nicole Pasulka
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982115807
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
A “funny, poignant, dishy, and even enlightening” adventure through a tight-knit world of drag performers making art, mayhem, and dreaming of making it big, this book is “the story of America now” (Alexander Chee, The New York Times). In How You Get Famous, journalist Nicole Pasulka raucously documents the rebirth of the New York drag scene, following a group of iconoclastic performers with undeniable charisma, talent, and a hell of a lot to prove. In the past decade, drag has become a place where edgy, competitive showoffs can find security in a callous and over priced city, a shot at real money, and a level of recognition queer people rarely achieve. But can drag keep its edge as it travels from the backroom to the main stage? A “joyful and scrappy” (Esquire) portrait of the 21st-century search for celebrity and community, How You Get Famous is “dripping in plush detail and drama” (Mother Jones) and “stitched together with great respect and love” (The Guardian). It’s the story of an aimless coat check worker who sweet-talked his way into hosting a drag show at a Brooklyn dive bar, a pair of teenagers sneaking into clubs and pocketing tips to help support their families, and eclectic performers who have managed to land a spot on TV and millions of followers…all colliding in an unprecedented account of a subculture on the brink of becoming a cultural phenomenon. “If you like to have a good time, you want to read this book!”—BuzzFeed

Category : Fiction

Book Description
Duckling is a nickname Lucy has never been able to shake off. And, if she is honest, maybe it suits her. She is not the type to socialise with other people. You might say she is reluctant to leave her nest. Lucy's life is small, but safe. She has a good routine. But all that is about to change. . . When Lucy's neighbour asks her to look after her little girl for a couple of hours - and then does not come back - Lucy is suddenly responsible for someone other than herself. It takes courage to let the outside world in, and Lucy is about to learn there is much more to life - but only if she is brave enough to spread her wings. ________________________________ Praise for Duckling: 'A poignant read' Woman's Own '[I] loved this gorgeous, funny, poignant and very human book' Rowan Coleman 'Underlines the importance of friendship, community and family while maintaining a galloping plot that keeps you hooked until the last page!' Sarah J Harris 'A lovely, heart-warming story about the importance of friendship and family, the power of forgiveness and about learning to love yourself' Clare Swatman 'Duckling is joyous, life-affirming and refreshing' Joanne Harris 'Combines uplifting and poignant moments with a plot that is so gripping it had me feverishly turning the pages' Jessica Ryn 'Charming and compassionate, dark at times yet peppered with joy!'
