Susanne Bartsch Presents: Bartschland: Tales of New York City Nightlife

Susanne Bartsch stands peerless in her reign over New York City nightlife.

From the opulence of the late 1980s to the present day, Bartsch possesses an innate ability to capture the spirit of the moment. Her legendary parties and diverse events continue to serve as the stage for an extraordinary convergence of people from around the world. From visionary artists to sex workers, fashion designers, cabaret stars, queer performers, Harlem ball dancers, go-go girls and boys, drag queens, burlesque amateurs, bodybuilders, twinks, and lipstick lesbians--to name just a few--all are welcome in Bartschland. In this book, alongside a long list of friends--from RuPaul to Aquaria to Amanda Lepore to Joey Arias--Bartsch illuminates the countless moments that have shaped her indelible legacy as New York City's "patron saint of transformation and inclusion."
