S23E6: Natalie Clifford Barney, Amazon Queen of Paris and Her Ladies Almanack Crew
Description
All the televised sights from Paris lately put Alicia in a mood, so today she's got the incredible story of Natalie Clifford Barney, a leading light in the Parisian art world in the 19th century, and also a fearless out lesbian in a time when such a thing was inconceivable to most. American born, Natalie's story is fascinating on many levels, not least because of her constant intersections with and contributions to the makers of the culture in which we live - artists and writers like Collette, Romaine Brooks, Renee Vivien, Djuana Barnes, Radclyffe Hall, Janet Flanner, Solita Solano, Mina Loy, Una Troubridge, and Elisabeth de Gramont, to name just a few.
