Tiger King

Joe Exotic, star of the Netflix original documentary that consumed the pop-cultural imagination (The Atlantic) and transfixed a nation in the midst of a global crisis, opens up about his outlandish journey from Midwestern farmer to infamous Tiger King, and finally, to federal inmate. Shortly after his arrest (for charges including hiring a hitman to murder his rival, Carole Baskin), Joe Exotic began keeping a daily journal of his life behind prison walls. In support of his defense, Joe began writing everything he wished he could tell a jury of his peers. Little did Joe know that mere months later, the self-proclaimed gun-toting, gay redneck with a mullet would become one of the most famous men in the world. Written entirely while incarcerated, this no-holds-barred memoir is Joe Exotics first, and maybe only, chance to tell his side of the storythe full story. Despite never having seen Tiger King, Joe is aware of whats been said about him, and hes eager to answer all the questions the world is dying to know. Such as: -The origin of the mullet. -How Joe became the Tiger King. -Joes favorite animals. -Joes relationships. -Joes explanation of all charges against him. -What happened with Trumps pardon. -What he thinks about caging animals now that he lives in a cage. -What Joe has to say now about Carole Baskin. From his tragic childhood riddled with abuse to his dangerous feuds with big cat rivals and beyond, nothing is off the table. This is the exclusive and definitive read for anyone who binged the riveting (Vanity Fair) documentary and finished it hungry for more. A memoir unlike any other, it proves that they can cage the Tiger King, but they cant silence his roar.
