But she never finished the books she was contracted to write-a painful failure, and yet a kind of achievement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe quintessential fan, Mercedes de Acosta had intimate friendships with the legendary actresses and dancers of the twentieth century. Her ephemeral legacy is the thousands of objects she collected to preserve the memory of those performers and to document her own feelings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn icon of haute couture and an editor of British Vogue, Madge Garland held influential views on fashion that drew on her feminism, her ideas about modernity, and her love of women. Existing both vividly and invisibly at the center of culture, she-like Murphy and de Acosta-is now almost completely forgotten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn All We Know, Lisa Cohen describes these women's glamorous choices, complicated failures, and controversial personal lives with lyricism and empathy. At once a series of intimate portraits and a startling investigation into style, celebrity, sexuality, and the genre of biography itself, All We Know explores a hidden history of modernism and pays tribute to three compelling lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Cohen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0374534489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780374534486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Farrar, Strauss \u0026amp; Giroux-3pl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.26h x 5.51w x 1.17d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/22\/3013 pg. 32","brand":"Lisa Cohen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048079323391,"sku":"9780374534486","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b6eb2586-a808-4223-8cd4-b475ff0b22ac.jpg?v=1684993766","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/all-we-know-lisa-cohen-9780374534486","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
