Gypsy, A Memoir by Gypsy Rose Lee

Gypsy, A Memoir

Gypsy Rose Lee

Gypsy: A Memoir is a 1957 autobiography of renowned striptease artist Gypsy Rose Lee, which inspired the Broadway musical Gypsy: A Musical Fable and two movies. The book tells Lee’s life story in three acts, the first beginning with her early childhood days in theatre when she toured with her sister, June.

In a fascinating, probably largely fictional autobiography, the ex-burlesque queen/novelist shows one thoroughly comical lesbian character. This is really minor, but marvelously funny, and anyone who plows through all the crud we mention will get a real break from this. ~ Marion Zimmer Bradley
