Drag is transformation, communication, and, above all, exaggeration, where gender non-conformity is the plat du jour. This fearless book observes this increasingly complex world by exploring drag's journey - from the surprising, to the sophisticated, to the utterly bizarre - through the twentieth century and up to the present day. Fenton Bailey, producer of 'RuPaul's Drag Race', gives an insightful foreword in this new concise edition.With witty text, dazzling photography, and corralled into thematic chapters, this is the first flamboyant and poignant survey of drag culture. Drag is not just for fabulous queens and drag enthusiasts, but for anyone interested in gender fluidity and the culture surrounding it.

Revolutionary and renegade, Keith Haring was an artist for the people, creating an instantly recognisable repertoire of symbols - barking dogs, space-ships, crawling babies, clambering faceless people - which became synonymous with the volatile culture of 1980s. Like a careening, preening pinball, Keith Haring playfully slammed into all aspects of this decade - hip-hop, new-wave, graffiti, funk, art, style, gay culture - and brought them together.--Amazon.com

An irreverent book of radically honest advice by renowned fashion arbiter and legendary window dresser Simon Doonan

My Prescription for Anti-Depressive Living offers an intimate glimpse into the life of a remarkably creative individual who defied early criticism from a pottery professor. Rather than abandon his passion, Adler revolutionized pottery, elevating it from a mundane craft to a symbol of modern luxury, ultimately becoming America's first celebrity potter. Interior designer Bill Sofield praises Adler's influence, likening it to Noel Coward's impact on cocktail parties. The book presents Adler's playful design "manifesto," with each chapter exploring a different tenet, showcasing his signature interiors and products, culminating in his personal creative journey. A visual delight, it features a rich array of images of both Adler's designs and those that inspire him. Central to the narrative are ten of Adler's iconic interiors, including the modernist beach house of photographer Andrea Stern and the transformed Parker Palm Springs resort. The book also highlights the homes shared by Adler, his partner Simon Doonan, and their dog, Liberace, across various locations. This literary debut is a vibrant blend of artist portrait and design inspiration, offering readers a spirited and motivating experience.
