Description
Anne de Courcy, the author of Husband Hunters and Chanel's Riviera,
examines the controversial life of legendary beauty, writer and rich
girl Nancy Cunard during her thirteen years in Jazz-Age Paris.Paris in
the 1920s was bursting with talent in the worlds of art, design and
literature. The city was at the forefront of everything new and
exciting; there was no censorship; life and love were there for the
taking. At its center was the gorgeous, seductive English socialite
Nancy Cunard, scion of the famous shipping line. Her lovers were legion,
but this book focuses on five of the most significant and a lifelong
friendship.Her affairs with acclaimed writers Ezra Pound, Aldous Huxley,
Michael Arlen and Louis Aragon were passionate and tempestuous, as was
her romance with black jazz pianist Henry Crowder. Her friendship with
the famous Irish novelist George Moore, her mother’s lover and a man
falsely rumored to be Nancy’s father, was the longest-lasting of her
life. Cunard’s early years were ones of great wealth but also emotional
deprivation. Her mother Lady Cunard, the American heiress Maud Alice
Burke (who later changed her name to Emerald) became a reigning London
hostess; Nancy, from an early age, was given to promiscuity and heavy
drinking and preferred a life in the arts to one in the social sphere
into which she had been born. Highly intelligent, a gifted poet and
widely read, she founded a small press that published Samuel Beckett
among others. A muse to many, she was also a courageous crusader against
racism and fascism. She left Paris in 1933, at the end of its most
glittering years and remained unafraid to live life on the edge until
her death in 1965. Magnificent Rebel is a nuanced portrait of a complex
woman, set against the backdrop of the City of Light during one of its
most important and fascinating decades.
