BOOK - Women of the Roaring Twenties

The Roaring Twenties of a hundred years ago are those of women! Painters, fashion designers, singers, dancers, aviators, patrons, activists... this period of euphoria gave birth to many heroines. Some like Coco Chanel, Colette, Suzanne Lenglen, Garbo, or Joséphine Baker have become legendary. Others have been overlooked by history. The interwar period was a period of joy during which everyone had to be free and happy. The women of the Roaring Twenties mentioned in this book did their utmost. Beyond their conditions, they imposed their personality, their talent, their audacity and their courage. This book portrays the 1920s by putting women back in their rightful place, evoking them for what they were above all: the major figures of their time!
