Souhami, Diana Gertrude and Alice
United Kingdom Pandora Pr 1991 0044408331 / 9780044408338 Hard Cover Very Good + Very Good +
Very-good+ copy. Dustcover shows slight wear and has been clipped inside-front-bottom flap. NO remainder marks. Illustrated throughout with photos. NO tears inside book. Tight spine, bright pages. 300 pages. 34 pages have light writing - mainly marks in margin. Does NOT interfere with reading. - Library Journal Though, as Souhami admits, this book gives no new insight into the work of Gertrude Stein, it does illuminate Stein's personal and intimate life in a way that the modernist's writings don't always do. Drawing from letters, memoirs, archival material, and published writings by and about Gertrude Stein and her confidante, lover, and assistant, Alice B. Toklas, Souhami essentially sketches a portrait of the unconventional relationship between the two California expatriates in Paris. From the time they met in 1907 until Stein's death in 1946, they lived as a truly committed couple, Gertrude being the more famous one, or the "genius," as Alice unquestionably believed. Previously published in 1991 in London, this informative and entertaining biography is possibly the first instance, now that the public presentation of lesbianism tends to be more accepted, in which the whole story of Gertrude and Alice "comes out." Highly recommended for literary collections in all academic and public libraries.

Souhami, Diana Greta and Cecil
HarperSanFrancisco 1994 0062508296 / 9780062508294 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Near-Fine
Near-new condition. Stated First Edition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $22.00. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. Dustcover shows light wear (NO tears). Illustrated throughout with photos. Tight spine, bright pages. 271 pages. Synopsis Greta Garbo first met the society photographer Cecil Beaton in Hollywood in 1932. Both were caught in turbulent same-sex affairs: Garbo with Mercedes de Acosta, a scriptwriter, and Beaton with Peter Watson, a wealthy dilettante. Garbo flirted, and danced, with Beaton, took a rose from a vase, kissed it and gave it to him. Then at dawn she drove away, brushing aside his pleas to stay. He took the rose home to England, framed it in silver and hung it above his bed. Fifteen years later they met again in New York and began a strange romance. For Garbo it was a teasing flirtation; for Beaton it was an obsession that fuelled his ambition to photograph her, to be like her and to marry her.
