Nearly every story in this dazzling collection is based on a woman who attained some celebrity - she raced speed boats or was a conjoined twin in show business; a reclusive painter of renown; a member of the first all-female, integrated swing band. We see Lord Byron's illegitimate daughter, Allegra; Oscar Wilde's troubled niece, Dolly; West With the Night author Beryl Markham; Edna St. Vincent Millay's sister, Norma. These extraordinary stories travel the world, explore the past (and delve into the future), and portray fiercely independent women defined by their acts of bravery, creative impulses, and sometimes reckless decisions. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 700 1 $a Lockford, Lesa, $d 1958- $e narrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/11273835 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/dsa_9781633794597_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20161103011709.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=26CCE238A18B11E6AED112AEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
