"This international collection of original essays critically examines RuPaul's Drag Race and RuPaul's DragU and the representation of drag within the contexts of the reality TV genre and LGBTQ issues. Contributors focus on the structure of the programs, the subversive nature of drag, the treatment of trans contestants, race, language and the shows' handling of LGBTQ political issues"--
