Beschreibung
Part memoir, part biography, part cultural history, this wonderful book is an irresistibly intelligent literary walk through the lives of wandering women. From nineteenth-century novelist George Sand to artist Sophie Calle, from war correspondent Martha Gellhorn to film-maker Agnes Varda, Flâneuse considers what is at stake when a certain kind of light-footed woman encounters the city and changes her life, one step at a time. Selected as Book of the Year 2016 by the Financial Times.
