From the Back Cover:
The daughter of an Indianapolis mortician, Janet Flanner really began to live at the age of thirty, when she fled to Paris with her female lover. That was in 1921, a few years before she signed on as Paris correspondent for the New Yorker, taking the pseudonym Genet.
About the Author:
Brenda Wineapple, an English professor at Union College, Schenectady, New York, goes beyond the mast of Genêt to reveal Flanner—no less vivid and complex than Stein, the Fitzgeralds, Hemingway, and other American expatriates who crossed her path.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. For 50 years, under the pen-name of Genet, Janet Flanner described the political, artistic and social life of Paris after World War I. She knew and saw people and events from Edith Wharton to Ernest Hemingway, from Charles Lindbergh's landing to Josephine Baker's debut. She wrote of the culture, the celebrities and the scandals of Paris and the wider Europe, and profiled de Gaulle, Picasso, Malraux, Mann and Hitler for her New Yorker readers. In Paris the American-born Flanner found the freedom to live and love as she chose, and her personal life was as passionate and complex as her public one. This book chronicles Flanner's lifelong relationship with Solita Solano and the turbulent love affairs of her later life. A chain-smoking, hard-driven perfectionist, Janet Flanner won the 1966 US National Book Award for "Paris Journal". In this literary biography, Brenda Wineapple brings to life the intense, compelling woman who, sporting a monocle, came to be synonymous with the bittersweet romance of the Parisian Left Bank. For 50 years, under the pen-name of Genet, Janet Flanner described the political, artistic and social life of Paris after World War I. This book chronicles Flanner's lifelong relationship with Solita Solano and the turbulent love affairs of her later life.
