Description
The world's oddest drag artist
This book is an intimate and in-depth look into the life of Yvie Oddly, winner of season eleven of RuPaul's Drag Race. It begins with their childhood and then tells of their coming out and coming to terms with their sexuality, gender and how those things impact their journey as an artist. It then follows them through their experience on Drag Race (season 11 and All Stars, All Winners), and their rise to super stardom. It's a close glimpse into their wonderful and sometimes turbulent relationships with their friends, family, and all the people they met along their journey. And it's an exploration of Yvie's unique expression of drag as an art form.
Yvie Oddly's memoir will inspire readers as Yvie candidly shares their evolution into their current identity and learning to balance their private and public personas. Readers will follow them on a journey they will sympathize with, and many may even see themselves in their struggles.
