Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The story of Oscar's flamboyant niece, Dolly Wilde (1895-1941) and the notorious literary salon in Paris that she and Natalie Barney established in the 1920s. The Academie des Femmes was a sort of literary circle comprising at one time or another Colette, Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, Djuna Barnes, Mina Loy and Romaine Brooks. It was often visited by men too - T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Jean Cocteau. At the heart of the salon - and this story - is the passionate love affair between Dolly and Natalie. Dolly was, like her famous uncle, a witty degenerate, brilliant and literary. In Paris, she cross-dressed as her uncle. HG Wells called her a "feminine Wilde", Radclyffe Hall's lover called her "much the better man". The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001953048
