Go-Go Boy
Memoirs from the Kitchen Floor to the Dance Floor

From the blinding glow of nightclub lights to the shadows of personaldespair, DJ Reimer’s debut memoir, Go-Go Boy: Memoirs from the Kitchen Floor to theDance Floor, offers a raw, electrifying, and surprisingly tender account of a highlymisunderstood profession: go-go dancing.
Taking place over a period of prolonged unemployment and self-isolation upon completinggraduate school, Go-Go Boy traces Reimer’s unexpected detour from the ivory tower to theelusive world of nightlife. What began as an attempt to earn extra money turned into atumultuous journey of self-discovery and personal redemption. With a sharp, humorousvoice and unflinching candor, Reimer explores nightlife, queerness, body image, and thedisorienting divide between being exposed and feeling seen.
