About the Author
Liane De Pougy, born in 1869, retired from her scandalous life in 1910 to marry a prince. After her husband's death in the mid-1940s, she became a nun and spent the rest of her life as Sister Anne-Marie. She died in 1950.
Reviews
The life of Liane de Pougy was like the plot of an X-rated fairy tale: a celebrated courtesan of the belle epoque, she danced at the Folies-Bergere and in St. Petersburg married a Romanian prince, had erotic entanglements with important bohemians and capped it all off by becoming a nun. She also kept a journal from 1919 to 1941, My Blue Notebooks, in which she candidly recorded her stormy friendships (particularly with poet Max Jacobs), her affairs (particularly with Nathalie Barney) and other adventures in inter-war Paris. Translated from the French and edited by Diana Athill in 1979, the book is now back in print for the first time in years.

Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
