"Pure ozone to those tired of ordinary oxygen."--"The New Yorker""One of the greatest mysteries ever written."--"The Philadelphia Daily News""Our most famous burlesque queen may raise the temperature with a strip tease, but she chills the blood when she goes into her detective routine."--"The Boston Post"In this steamy sequel to "The G-String Murders," Gypsy Rose Lee's noir thriller reads as if it's ripped from her own diary pages. When her mother finds a dead body in Gypsy's trailer during her honeymoon, Gypsy realizes that no one is who they seem to be, and everyone is worthy of suspicion.Gypsy Rose Lee (1911-1970) was born Louise Hovick in Seattle, Washington, and became the most famous burlesque actor and striptease artist of her day, renowned as much for her witty repartee on stage as for removing her clothes. First performing with her sister on the vaudeville circuit and later in striptease routines, Rose soon landed star billing in a top New York burlesque theater, and following her wild success there, became a popular fixture in Broadway theaters. In 1937 she moved to Hollywood. She went on to appear in twelve films and have her own television show. Rose's writing career included contributing regularly to "The New Yorker," reporting on the New York social scene, and publishing two novels. She also wrote her memoir "Gypsy" (1957), which later became the inspiration for the hugely popular Broadway musical, "Gypsy: A Musical Fable" and the 1962 film version of the play.Femmes Fatales restores to print the best of women's writing in the classic pulp genres of the mid-20th century. From mystery to hard-boiled noir to taboo lesbian romance, these rediscovered queens of pulp offer subversive perspectives on a turbulent era.

A mystery set in the underworld of burlesque theater, "The G-String Murders" was penned in 1941 by the legendary queen of the stripteasers--the witty and wisecracking Gypsy Rose Lee. Narrating a twisted tale of a backstage double murder, Lee provides a fascinating look behind the scenes of burlesque, richly populated by the likes of strippers Lolita LaVerne and Gee Gee Graham, comic Biff Brannigan and Siggy the g-string salesman. This is a world where women struggle to earn a living performing bumps and grinds, have gangster boyfriends, sip beer between acts and pay their own way at dinner. The story unfolds in a New York theater modeled on the legendary Minsky's, prone to raids by corrupt city cops and fierce competition among strippers. When one performer is found strangled with a g-string, no one is above suspicion. But when a second murder follows, the trail--and the action--really heats up. In the police procedural that follows, a host of clueless coppers faces off against the theater's tough-talking guys and dolls, and it's clear that Gypsy and her cohorts will have to crack the case themselves. The basis of the 1943 film "Lady of Burlesque" starring Barbara Stanwyck, "The G-String Murders" was the first of two murder mysteries written by Gypsy Rose Lee. A natural-born raconteur, Lee also contributed short pieces to "The New Yorker" and hosted her own television talk show; even her unparalleled stardom in the burlesque world was attributed more to her witty banter than to her risque moves. It is this fabled wit, along with Gypsy's brassy sociology, that make "The G-String Murders" a must-read primer of sex, commerce and urban living. Femmes Fatales restores to print the best of women's writing in the classic pulp genres of the mid-20th century. From mystery to hard-boiled noir to taboo lesbian romance, these rediscovered queens of pulp offer subversive perspectives on a turbulent era.

Forced to use a wheelchair in public and endure a lifetime of faux illness, fraud, and exploitation, Gypsy was subjected not only to her mother’s medical, physical, and emotional abuse, but deprived of childhood milestones. Prevented from attending school or socialising, Gypsy’s formative years were defined by pain and isolation. After serving 8 years in prison for the role she played in her mother Dee Dee’s murder, Gypsy is embracing her fresh start - and reminding all of us that it’s never too late. In this revelatory, harrowing, and ultimately hopeful memoir, Gypsy shares the painful realities she grew up with and the details of her life that only she knows, including: The abusive cycle that began with Dee Dee’s abuse by her father. Gypsy’s fear that continued unnecessary surgery would leave her truly disabled. How she coped with guilt and accepted responsibility for her mother’s death. Memories of her final days in prison. What she learned upon reviewing her own medical records for the first time. How it felt to finally see her family again as her authentic self.

A revealing portrait of Gypsy Rose Lee, the “Striptease Intellectual” of 1930s burlesque A true icon of America at a turning point in its history, Gypsy Rose Lee was the first—and the only—stripper to become a household name, write novels, and win the adulation of intellectuals, bankers, socialites, and ordinary Americans. Her outrageous blend of funny-smart sex symbol with the aura of high culture—she boasted that she liked to read Great Books and listen to classical music while taking off her clothes on-stage—inspired a musical, memoirs, a portrait by Max Ernst, and a species of rose. Gypsy is the first book about Gypsy Rose Lee’s life, fame, and place in America not written by a family member, and it reveals her deep impact on the social and cultural transformations taking shape during her life. Rachel Shteir, author of the prize-winning Striptease, gives us Gypsy’s story from her arrival in New York in 1931 to her sojourns in Hollywood, her friendships and rivalries with writers and artists, the Sondheim musical, family memoirs that retold her history in divergent ways, and a television biopic currently in the making. With verve, audacity, and native guile, Gypsy Rose Lee moved striptease from the margins of American life to Broadway, Hollywood, and Main Street. Gypsy tells how she did it, and why.
