Popular Editorial Review
**** "Behind the Burly Q: The Story of Burlesque in America" by Leslie Zemeckis has captivated readers by delving into the rich and often overlooked history of burlesque. Mixing nostalgia with historical analysis, the book combines personal anecdotes with extensive interviews from prominent figures of the burlesque era. Readers who attended live performances during the golden age of burlesque, or those who are merely curious about this unique art form, find the content both relatable and enlightening. The well-documented narrative weaves together tales of strippers, comedians, and the musical talents who contributed to this entertainment genre. While many praise Zemeckis for humanizing the entertainers and chronicling their struggles against societal stigma, some critique the focus largely on female performers, expressing interest in a more balanced view that includes male comedians and their transitions into radio and television. The captivating photographs enrich the reading experience by visually contextualizing the era, although a few readers noted that the organization of the content could feel scattered at times. Overall, "Behind the Burly Q" offers a thorough exploration of burlesque, making it a worthwhile read for both enthusiasts and those seeking to learn about a significant chapter in American entertainment history. **
