But Gentlemen Marry Brunettes: The Illuminating Diary of a Professional Lady (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics)

1928. Loos was an acclaimed American screenwriter, playwright and author. Loos is perhaps best known for her short novel Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, a satirical view of a dumb blonde showgirl from Arkansas out to get a rich husband. It was an overnight bestseller. She wrote a sequel titled But Gentlemen Marry Brunettes, which was also successful. These Jazz Age classics are written as the diaries of a flapper who travels to Europe, meets everyone and returns to the United States to marry a millionaire. A fun read.
