Where All Good Flappers Go: Essential Stories of the Jazz Age
"I believe in the flapper as an artist in her particular field, the art of being – being young, being lovely." Zelda Fitzgerald
A sparkling new collection of "flapper fiction": stories featuring the iconic women who defined the Jazz Age
Edited and introduced by David M. Earle

Bringing together stories from widely adored writers and newly discovered gems, principally sourced from the magazines of the period, this collection is a celebration of the outrageous charm of an iconic figure of the Jazz Age.
