Hell In A Handbag - A Memoir

COMING April, 2026 - DOPAMINE Books

A freaks freak, artist Jibz Cameron, best known for her multimedia alter ego Dynasty Handbag, has a new memoir. Entitled Hell in a Handbag, the book traces Cameron’s unique perspective shaped by a childhood spent with hippie clowns in Northern California, to making morbid zines as a teen in the East Bay punk scene, to in-your-face experiences of misogyny in New York City’s avant-garde theater scene. By turns both frank and funny, Cameron addresses the impact of addiction and mental illness in her life, as well as her mother’s suicide, in a candid account of her journey. This personal narrative culminates in the birth of Dynasty Handbag, and her gutting commentary on contemporary life.
