Where All Good Flappers Go by X Various Authors

Featuring short stories from F. Scott Fitzgerald, Anita Loos, Dorothy Parker, Zora Neale Hurston and more

Edited and Introduced by David M. Earle

Vivacious, charming, irreverent: a flapper is a girl who knows how to have a roaring good time. In this collection of short stories she's a partygoer, a socialite, a student, a shopgirl, and an acrobat. She bobs her hair, shortens her skirt, searches for a husband and scandalizes her husband. She's a glittering object of delight, and a woman embracing a newfound independence.

Bringing together stories from widely adored writers and newly discovered gems, sourced from the magazines of the period, this collection celebrates the outrageous charm of an iconic figure of the Jazz Age.

David M. Earle is a Professor of Modernism and Print Culture at the University of West Florida. He publishes regularly on the history of magazines and popular publishing. His books include All Man! (Kent State University Press), a study of gender in 1950s men's magazines, and Re-Covering Modernism (Routledge 2009), on the popular forms of modernist literature. He has also edited the "Oxford Online Bibliography of Popular Magazines of the Early 20th Century" (2021).
