Meer over het boek

The narrative explores the life of a male ventriloquist who became a celebrated British Music Hall performer in the late 1930s, known for his act with dummies like Augustus Peabody, while dressed as a woman. His ambiguous gender presentation led many to believe he was female, despite his acknowledgment of his masculinity. Over time, he embraced a female identity both on and off stage, ultimately blurring the lines between his stage persona and real life, making him a notable figure in discussions of gender variance.
