Anita Loos first published the diaries of the gold-digging blonde in the flapper days of 1925, forging a new archetype for the modern world." "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes follows Lorelei and her best friend, Dorothy, from Hollywood to Manhattan to Paris and London, pursued by eager suitors all the while. In "the Central of Europe," with a new diamond tiara in her handbag, Lorelei meets a traveling American millionaire who just might be the one. She retires her diary, but not for long, because, as she writes in the opening pages of But Gentlemen Marry Brunettes, "it is bright ideas that keep the home fires burning, and prevent a divorce from taking all of the bloom off Romance."" "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and its brunette sequel are present here in one volume containing the original Ralph Barton illustrations and a penetrating introduction by feminist humor maven, Regina Barreca."--Jacket. 000433962 650_0 $$aYoung women$$vFiction. 000433962 650_0 $$aMan-woman relationships$$vFiction. 000433962 650_0 $$aMillionaires$$vFiction. 000433962 655_7 $$aDiary fiction.$$2lcgft 000433962 655_7 $$aHumorous fiction.$$2lcgft 000433962 70012 $$aLoos, Anita,$$d1893-1981.$$tBut gentlemen marry brunettes. 000433962 74002 $$aBut gentlemen marry brunettes. 000433962 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3523.O557$$iG4$$i1998 000433962 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:433962$$pGLOBAL_SET 000433962 980__ $$aBIB 000433962 980__ $$aBOOK
