Description
In this intimate biography of Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923), Claudette Joannis probes the lesser-known aspects of the celebrated actress’s life, such as her passion and talent for sculpture, painting, interior design, fashion and directing. Her golden voice and tyrannical attitude brought her both friends and enemies. This passionate portrait gives the reader a closer understanding of the enigmatic and brilliant figure.
