Description:

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 theNew Yorker, taking the pseudonym Genêt. For half a century she described life on the Continent with matchless elegance.
