Barbizon. Girls only hotel.
14.99 €
In the "roaring twenties" there was a building for new women. The ladies wanted what any man already had - life in the metropolis, their own room, comfort and peace. No cleaning, no cooking, access to gyms on the floor and restaurants in the lobby. It's time to grab your purse, run out of the hotel on Lexington Avenue, and conquer New York City! This book is the story of one building - the "dollhouse". It has been home to Sylvia Plath, Joan Didion, Rita Hayworth, Molly Brown, Grace Kelly, Liza Minnelli, and so many other marvelous singers, writers, artists, actresses, editors, and models. But, before they became famous, all of them, very young, came to the Barbizon Hotel with a suitcase, letters of recommendation and hopes.
