“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 tapestry, interweaving memoir, history, and theory into a vibrant portrayal of an artist and an art form. Within these pages, adorned with photographs and original artwork, Sasha Velour sheds light on drag as a distinct mode of expression with a rich heritage and a revolutionary essence.

Each chapter unveils a new facet, peeling away one tantalizing glove after another, to unveil the intricate twists and turns in the life of a queen. As Sasha reminisces about her own journey, from the women who nurtured her to mastering the art of an artist, to triumphs, setbacks, and more, she also uncovers the rich tapestry of queer existence across the globe that paved the way for it all.

From shamans to "fairy 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 emerges an equally singular, thought-provoking manifesto that infuses our understanding of drag, queerness, beauty, and liberation with essential and sparkling brilliance!
