iO Tillett Wright's DARLING DAYS Out Today From Ecco
iO Tillett Wright's memoir DARLING DAYS is out today from Ecco Press.
“Gender-defying iO Tillett Wright mixes such a high-octane cocktail of radiant ink, wild anecdotes, bad behavior, and gritty truths-topped off with an unexpected tonic of transcendence-it could stagger Charles Dickens, electrify Maxim Gorky, and cause Jane Austen to walk around in army boots.” (Tom Robbins)
“iO Tillett Wright is nothing short of a force of nature-an artist, an activist, and a survivor. iO has packed a lot into few years and in this extraordinary memoir has created something brave and true, as devastating as it is inspiring.” (Jill Soloway, Emmy-award winning creator of Transparent)
