Ebook About
“A glittering, bittersweet vision of an outsider who turned himself into the life and soul of the party. Kilmer-Purcell’s cast is part freak-show, part soap-opera, but his prose is graced with such insight and wit that the laughter is revelatory, and the tears—and there are tears to be shed along this extraordinary journey—are shed for people in whom everybody will find something of themselves. In a word, wonderful.”  — Clive Barker“Absolutely hilarious and heartbreaking and heartfelt.” —Armistead Maupin, author of Tales of the CityThe New York Times bestselling, darkly funny memoir of a young New Yorker's daring dual life—advertising art director by day, glitter-dripping drag queen and nightclub beauty-pageant hopeful by night—was a smash literary debut for Josh Kilmer-Purcell, now known for his popular Planet Green television series The Fabulous Beekman Boys. His story begins here—before the homemade goat milk soaps and hand-gathered honeys, before his memoir of the city mouse’s move to the country, The Bucolic Plague—in I Am Not Myself These Days, with “plenty of dishy anecdotes and moments of tragi-camp delight” (Washington Post).

Book I Am Not Myself These Days: A Memoir Review :



Clowns make me uneasy. Angry drag queens can unnerve me, but their sense of humor can disarm that, but only if I'm in on the joke. The first half of this story had an uncanny humor - from the descriptions of a life shaped in Wisconsin and his understanding of his mother's misunderstanding of drag vs. trans to the reality of the commercialization of the scene and attendant misuse of drugs and alcohol, but once the shit gets real, the story telling looses. I'm well aware of the quiet destitution that permates any drag show ending. It is often used as a trope to connect any kind of real emotion to the audience, who are complicit in the illusion; we're just a couple of gay friends suffering our unique suffering. Please, laugh with us. But the second half of this story lays bare the illusion with the same historical trope nongay writers and Hollywood (think, the boys in the band) use as the cautionary story telling of gay lives... be gay or a drag queen and you'll end up sad, despondent and if not dead, watching 80s TV series, and then dead. My suspension of hope shattered. My first thought was how could an admittedly overachiever - and commentator of the reality of the illusion we all contribute to - miss the hope in front of him? How could a hystercaly fun and humane beginning (I cried at least twice and out loud laughed 6x more often) end so inhumanely? How could self reflective gay drag queen miss the hope. Cycsim and snark are wonderful tools to open up the reality but once cracked open, truth has to win out and it doesn't always have be pathetic or suicidal or wistful.
I had just started the authors Bucolic Plague- and ordered his two other books. This and his non-fiction work. I'm glad I read them in this order. I fell in love with him. And I'm glad I did. I don't know why. This book is witty, raw, honest and funny. I cried at the end. Differently than Bucolic. I SOBBED for about 10 seconds in Bucolic. This book just brought me to tears. It's very, very good. And I would recommend buying both. I haven't read the third book. Yet. Lol. This is a marathon I'm on. I have bought many books from the same author at one time. But never read more than one in succession. Please do yourself a favor. Read them all. It's worth it.
