Flapper is a dazzling look at the women who heralded a radical change in American culture and launched the first truly modern decade.The New Woman of the 1920s puffed cigarettes, snuck gin, hiked her hemlines, danced the Charleston, and necked in roadsters. More important, she earned her own keep, controlled her own destiny, and secured liberties that modern women take for granted.Flapper is an inside look at the 1920s. With tales of Coco Chanel, the French orphan who redefined the feminine form; Lois Long, the woman who christened herself “Lipstick” and gave New Yorker readers a thrilling entrée into Manhattan’s extravagant Jazz Age nightlife; three of America’s first celebrities: Clara Bow, Colleen Moore, and Louise Brooks; Dallas-born fashion artist Gordon Conway; Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald, whose swift ascent and spectacular fall embodied the glamour and excess of the era; and more, this is the story of America’s first sexual revolution, its first merchants of cool, its first celebrities, and its most sparkling advertisement for the right to pursue happiness.Whisking us from the Alabama country club where Zelda Sayre first caught the eye of F. Scott Fitzgerald to Mun... [Read More]

Genevieve is an independent and mischievous young teen determined to seek romance and adventure, even after arriving at Miss Paddles' boarding school. She sets her sights on a dashing older man named Richard, whom all her classmates are secretly in love with. Intent on pursuing the flapper lifestyle, Genevieve encounters several adventures, including a late evening ball, a party in Manhattan, and a jewel theft, the last of which causes her to reconsider the fantasy world she's gotten caught up in. Pittsburgh-based Olive Thomas won a beauty contest while working at a Manhattan department store. The publicity ended up netting her a spot in the Ziegfeld Follies and jump-started her film career. She appeared in silents such as Madcap Madge (1917) and Indiscreet Corinne (1917). She died rather tragically at the young age of 25 after accidentally overdosing on mercury bichloride.

By the 1920s, women were on the verge of something huge. Jazz, racy fashions, eyebrowraising new attitudes about art and sex―all of this pointed to a sleek, modern world, one that could shake off the grimness of the Great War and stride into the future in one deft, stylized gesture. The women who defined this the Jazz Age―Josephine Baker, Tallulah Bankhead, Diana Cooper, Nancy Cunard, Zelda Fitzgerald, and Tamara de Lempicka―would presage the sexual revolution by nearly half a century and would shape the role of women for generations to come.In Flappers, the acclaimed biographer Judith Mackrell renders these women with all the color that marked their lives and their era. Both sensuous and sympathetic, her admiring biography lays bare the private lives of her heroines, filling in the bold contours. These women came from vastly different backgrounds, but all ended up passing through Paris, the mecca of the avant-garde. Before she was the toast of Parisian society, Josephine Baker was a poor black girl from the slums of Saint Louis. Tamara de Lempicka fled the Russian Revolution only to struggle to scrape together a life for herself and her family. A committed painter, her portr... [Read More]
