Thank you so much for your comment an...Hello Hels,<br /><br />Thank you so much for your comment and telling me about the link. I put the 'http' in twice!<br /><br />We must be on the same wavelength! Lucile Duff-Gordon was such an interesting person. There are a few books about her. <br /><br />'Discretions and Indiscretions' is her autobiography. It is available on ILL. I haven't read it yet.<br /><br />I enjoyed 'The It Girls' about Lucy and her sister, Elinor Glyn, although I was disappointed that the famous law case in which Lucy was involved wasn't even mentioned.<br /><br />Another book, 'Lucile Ltd' has been published recently. I saw it at the Art Gallery here and it had the most beautiful pictures. It has information from the V & A archives apparently.Violahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08046603677301666579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1534336955228121954.post-34075975519484642402010-01-20T05:29:52.765-08:002010-01-20T05:29:52.765-08:00Viola, great timing!

I want to know about their life in "normal times", and that is not so easy to find.<br /><br />But I cannot get your It Girl article to load. It is just my computer?Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
