My Life, a Four Letter Word: Confessions of a Counter Culture

My Life, a Four Letter Word: Confessions of a Counter Culture Diva

Dolores DeLuce, a five-foot Diva in six-inch heels, takes us on a bumpy ride from her gray days in New Jersey to the tumultuous post-Stonewall gay days of â€˜70â€™s Los Angeles and San Francisco. When her Italian American family rejects her after the birth of her mixed-race daughter, she creates a new family with the most unlikely people under the most unusual circumstances. Her new family includes Divine, assorted bad boys on Venice Beach, and her loving gay â€œhusbands.â€ Along the way she meets John Waters, Edie Massey, Rip Taylor and Joan Rivers, is crowned â€œMiss Alternative L.A.â€ and wins The $1.98 Beauty Show. Through tears and glitter, Dolores survives her bitter family estrangements only to face the pain of the AIDS crisis first-hand.
