the long version

"Madame Deluxe is all things loud and leopard-print. Inspired by years of watching drag shows, Darlington evokes a persona who wanders the periphery of femininity, catcalling paradigms from Venus to Victoria's Secret. Striking out against artifice, staging her own myth, Madame Deluxe is a she-male Vesuvius. Expect scat, expect 350-lb. poems, expect a guide to the pleasures of leather and a manual for modern marriage. In this raucous debut collection, Darlington shocks, seduces, and intrigues us -- spurring us to rethink our ideas about women and femininity"--Back cover.
