Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In her exuberant new work, Marion Meade presents a portrait of four extraordinary writersDorothy Parker, Zelda Fitzgerald, Edna St.Vincent Millay, and Edna Ferber whose loves, lives, and literary endeavors embodied the spirit of the 1920s.These literary heroines did what they wanted and said what they thought, living wholly in the moment. They kicked open the door for twentiethcentury women writers and set a new model for every woman trying to juggle the serious issues of economic independence, political power, and sexual freedom. Here are the social and literary triumphs and inevitably the penances paid: crumbled love affairs, abortions, depression, lost beauty, nervous breakdowns, and finally, overdoses and even madness.A vibrant mixture of literary scholarship, social history, and scandal, Bobbed Hair and Bathtub Gin is a rich evocation of a period that will forever intrigue and captivate us.
