Barbizon. There are only girls at the hotel. Bren P.

In the "roaring twenties" a building appeared for new women. The ladies wanted what any man already had - life in the metropolis, their room, comfort and peace. Do not clean, do not cook, have access to the gym halls on the floor and restaurants in the lobby. The time has come to capture a handbag, run out of the hotel to Lexington Avenue and conquer New York!

This book is the story of one building-the Puppet House. They lived here: Sylvia Plates, Joan Didyon, Rita Hayworth, Molly Brown, Grace Kelly, Lisa Minnelli and a lot of other wonderful singers, writers, artists, actresses, editors and models. But, before they become famous, all of them, very young, came to the Barbison Hotel with a suitcase, recommender letters and hopes.
