These books deal with my favourite time period-the Jazz Age.1922 picks the year of publication of Ulysses as the fulcrum for a group biography that takes in all the movers and shakers of the time.Lucy Moore's book is a series of essays focusing on a particular aspect-Harlem, Hollywood,real estate,politics and so on,to give you a deeper context of the time.

A good overview of some of the major events of the Roaring Twenties and of the celebrities and public figures we remember from that period.

1. Group biographies , romance , fantasy, sci-fi
2. Discworld, The Lord of the Rings, Tamora Pierce's Lioness quartet, Harry Potter ( though JKR has some vile views)
3. The tagged book was excellent, and India right now is quite like the 20s in the worst way, with polarisation, jingoism, an economy heading for a crash, and none of the fun of the 20s!!
Nice tag, hope you had a good weekend!

This describes India right now.

Okay

Picked up this gorgeous hardcover for only $3, and it inspired me to don my most jazz-age shoes!

Think I'm pushing it with this one using roaring as an #onomatopoeia but it's the best I can think of 😂this book has been on my #tbr for a while I love books about or set in the 1920s! #jubilantjuly
