C'était une période de nouvelles libertés inimaginables. Des cafés de Paris au grand écran d'Hollywood, les femmes exploraient de nouveaux modes d'expression et de nouveaux modes de vie. Dans d'innombrables aspects de la vie, elles ont osé défier les notions acceptées d'un "sexe plus juste" et ont ouvert de nouvelles portes aux générations à venir. De plus, elles l'ont fait avec joie, humour et charme. Explorant la vie de dix-sept artistes, écrivainnes, designers, danseuses, aventurières et athlètes, ce livre superbement illustré rassemble des dizaines de photographies avec un texte engageant. Dans ces pages, les lecteurs rencontreront des femmes iconoclastes telles que la satiriste animée Dorothy Parker, la muse et artiste d'avant-garde Kiki de Montparnasse et la pionnière de l'aviation Amelia Earhart, dont les histoires continuent encore de nous inspirer. Women of the 1920s est un ajout audacieux et élégant à toute bibliothèque de l'histoire des femmes.

Thomas Bleitner is a writer and bookseller based in Hamburg, Germany.
It was a time of unimagined new freedoms. From the cafés of Paris to Hollywood's silver screen, women were exploring new modes of expression and new lifestyles. In countless aspects of life, they dared to challenge accepted notions of a "fairer sex", and opened new doors for the generations to come. What's more, they did it with joy, humor, and unapologetic charm.
Exploring the lives of seventeen artists, writers, designers, dancers, adventurers, and athletes, this splendidly illustrated book brings together dozens of photographs with an engaging text. In these pages, readers will meet such iconoclastic women as the lively satirist Dorothy Parker, the avant-garde muse and artist Kiki de Montparnasse, and aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart, whose stories continue to offer inspiration for our time. Women of the 1920s is a daring and stylish addition to any bookshelf of women's history.
