Featuring short stories from F. Scott Fitzgerald, Anita Loos, Dorothy Parker, Zora Neale Hurston and more
Edited and Introduced by David M. Earle
Vivacious, charming, irreverent: a flapper is a girl who knows how to have a roaring good time. In this collection of short stories she's a partygoer, a socialite, a student, a shopgirl, and an acrobat. She bobs her hair, shortens her skirt, searches for a husband and scandalizes her husband. She's a glittering object of delight, and a woman embracing a newfound independence.
Bringing together stories from widely adored writers and newly discovered gems, sourced from the magazines of the period, this collection celebrates the outrageous charm of an iconic figure of the Jazz Age.
