About this listen

“It’s a knockout.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

From RuPaul’s Drag Race winner, Traitors contestant, and host of HBO’s We’re Here comes an inventive, wondrous novel about American hero Harriet Tubman that remixes history into a fresh, dynamic novel about love, freedom, salvation, and hip-hop.

In an age of miracles where our greatest heroes from history have magically, unexplainably returned to shake us out of our confusion and hate, Harriet Tubman is back, and she has a lot to say.

Harriet Tubman and four of the enslaved persons she led to freedom want to tell their story in a unique way. Harriet wants to create a hip-hop album and live show about her life, and she needs a songwriter to help her.

She calls upon Darnell Williams, a once successful hip-hop producer who was topping the charts before being outed on a BET talk show. Darnell has no idea what to expect when he steps into the studio with Harriet, only that they have a short period of time to write a legendary album she can take on the road. Over the course of their time together, they not only create music that will take the country by storm, but confront the horrors of both their pasts, and learn to find a way to a better future.

Original, evocative, and historic, Harriet Tubman: Live in Concert is a landmark achievement that will burrow deep into our hearts (and ears).

Harriet Tubman Live in Concert is a tribute to Bob the Drag Queen’s mastery of performance and storytelling.

Powerful, brilliant, moving, and hilarious - this novel is as nourishing to the soul as your Mums chicken soup, and hanging out with your cousins.

I have been a fan of Bob the Drag Queen since he was on RuPauls Drag Race.
I pre-ordered this as soon as it came out, and dispute months of anticipation and excitement, I was not disappointed at all.

The novel is entertaining, moving, unique, and so funny. I loved the historical detail and learned so much. I absolutely loved the way Bob brought each character to life with joy, empathy, and originality. As a costume designer, I really appreciated the detailed descriptions of the character’s outfits.

Bob’s narration of the novel is of course brilliant - no surprises there. I was genuinely laughing out loud and crying throughout.

The two original songs … just no words. Epic.
