"""The book will certainly find a general audience, and I imagine the queens of the 801 Cabaret themselves will find it to be fabulous bedtime reading. . . . [The book] will stand as a testament to the rich and imaginative texture of queer lives in the twenty-first century.""--Judith Halberstam ""Journal of the History of Sexuality"" ""Rupp and Taylor have trumped all the other researchers with Drag Queens at the 801 Cabaret, an in-depth look at a Duval Street institution in Key West. Scholarly, well-informed, and filled with fascinating people and their stories--the drag queens in their double lives as well as those who associate with them--the book is utterly entertaining.""-- ""Gay & Lesbian Review"" 2005 Distinguished Book Award, Sex and Gender Section, American Sociological Association --American Sociological Association ""Distinguished Book Award"""
