Book Presentation:
Elle fut une gosse de Brooklyn rêvant d'un destin grandiose dans les cinémas de quartier. Elle fut la première it girl, immense star du muet, à qui les fans envoyaient des lettres par milliers. Elle fut l'âme des années vingt, icône virevoltante de l'âge du jazz, adoubée par Francis Scott Fitzgerald. Elle fut une amoureuse ardente, aux bras de Gary Cooper ou de Victor Fleming. Elle fut une femme à qui on reprocha sa liberté, sans reculer devant les fables les plus sordides. Elle fut l'une des victimes inaugurales de cette machine à broyer les êtres : Hollywood. En 1933, la fulgurante carrière de Clara Bow s'achevait. Elle avait vingt-huit ans.
