The storytelling continues. The medium is ever evolving. My memoir, The Upcycled Self, is live for preorders and releases on November 14th. I’m so proud of this work. It’s been years in the making. A close look at my childhood…the era that made me.

The Upcycled Self by Tariq Trotter Book

From one of our generation’s most powerful artists and incisive storytellers comes a brilliantly crafted work about the art –and war – of becoming who we are.
