JT LeRoy: Gender, Deception, and the Ultimate Hoax
Manage episode 387763142 series 3447160
On this week’s episode of the Compendium, we dive into the wild world of JT Leroy, a name that took the literary scene by storm before turning it on its head. Join us as we pick apart how Laura Albert and Savannah Knoop spun the identity of a made-up boy-genius author, fooling the glitterati and bookworms alike. It’s a story packed with scandal and a hoax that has us questioning everything about identity in the arts.
In our chat, today we're not just telling a story; we’re asking the big questions about what happens when the line between an author’s true self and their fiction gets blurry. We'll get into the nitty-gritty of the JT Leroy literary scandal explained, stirring up everything from gender identity debates to the shockwaves the hoax sent through pop culture. So, buckle up—it’s going to be a wild ride through one of the juiciest literary hoaxes ever.
