Flapper: A Madcap Story of Sex, Style, Celebrity, and the Women Who Made America Modern
Flappers were the strippers of the 1920s. You may be glorified today, a bit like women who wear burka, and prostitutes are always glorified as “independent women… Make their own way”, but it’s just a big mistake. Arn’t these women are role models and the biggest problem with society that we are this young girl the model (this or a burqa) to tell. For the young woman is told, “the only thing that counts is in you, but you, your eyes, your legs, and how to shake it.” Yes, that was America in 1925, and. . . ITS America is today. The only difference is that today, the scientists also glorify the burqa and the hijab. Yes, change something. . . the music was always schlimmer.Seth J. FrantzmanBewertung: 2 / 5
Yes, yes, ok – there’s a lot here in the way of anecdotal and almost garrulous juicy goodness. Many little-known facts about the political and social indicators and on the flapper as their own special demographischen.Doch the author claims that the reconstruction was a good thing, and that the Volstead Act achieved what they set out to both give rise to the suspicion that inevitably, if it is both wrong (as it was quite clear), then the accuracy of his work and in fact as a historian is his believablily seriously Zweifel.Bewertung: 1 / 5
This book was such an enjoyable read. I was excited to get it after reading the good reviews and was not disappointed. I highly recommend it. Rating: 5 / 5
This reads almost like a novel, and is about all the time for women in the big perspective. Rating: 5 / 5
The book is a fascinating read about the so-called “Lost Generation”. I liked the writing style and the text has to be backed up with sound research. Very aufschlussreich.Was I was a little aggravated, the number of typographical errors in the scanning process for the Kindle version was. I should have this book 5 stars if not for the scanning errors. Not used to read the text at all, and after a while you will get many of the “y” will s “j” see and none of the “$” figures, which show up as “$”. Rating: 4 / 5
