First edition 2nd printing July 1936 1 month after June 1st printing of this outspoken frank and often humorous author whose shocking “Three Weeks†1907 bestseller titillated and attracted readers with her heroine seducing a younger man to conceive a child on a tiger skin rug; or her flapper era screenplay “It†which offered up Clara Bow as the quintessential sexually powerful Jazz Age heroine in 1927. She writes of defying her family as a young woman spurning suitors who were too old too fat or just didn’t appeal to her before they forced her exiled to Jersey where she would write columns on fashion and design clothing with her sister Lucy Duff-Gordon.
