E-raamat: Many Lives of Miss K

This is one of the most wonderful books about a woman who lived her life on her terms in times that called for most to live by societys rules. Recommend it? How about urge all to have an amazing experience and read about this woman who conquered convention and was a player in an unbelievably full life. You just cant make up this stuff! Staggering! One of the best biographies that ever graced my eyes! ~Jeffrey Felner, New York Journal of Books

Miss K is a fascinating read, not only for the sections pertaining to fashion, but also for the historical context they provide for this time period. Despite the glamorous aspects of her life, there are some parts of this book that detail the hard, cold facts Id encourage any fashion historian interested in the war and interwar years to pick up a copy. ~Fashion Historian

"Now her cinematic life is getting the hagiography treatment in a fascinating and flawed new book, The Many Lives of Miss K..." ~Newsweek/The Daily Beast

The Many Lives of Miss K is a fascinating read. There is nothing missing in terms of accuracy and delicious recounting of the history itself. And although at times it reads quite factually, the book is chock-full of very personal, insightful, brow-raising, shocking, and extremely interesting information, that I just could not put this down. A definite page-turner that unfolds the life of a spectacular individual whose life could not be more incredible if it were fiction. ~Examiner

With such an exciting life Koopman had, this book is guaranteed to have any fashionista flipping through as many pages as she can each day! ~Inside Fashion Chicago    I did judge and choose a book by its cover. I was hooked immediately, especially after reading the blurb ~Library Journal

Jean-Noel Liaut gathers and presents the available information wonderfully, often speculating on but never conjuring the tale of this fascinating woman who never ceased reinventing and rediscovering herself. ~Boxes of Paper Blog   Love learning about these amazing brave women who we dont hear enough about. ~Champagne & Heels Blog

...her cinematic life is getting the hagiography treatment in a fascinating and flawed new book ~Daily Beast

If you wish to read about this strong-minded fashion model who defied a number of stereotypes then pick up Liuats book. The Many Lives of Miss K is a historically accurate work that is chock-full of facts pertaining to Koopmans along with Europes historyKoopmans life is so surreal. I assure you that Toto Koopman will top your favorite female heroines from even the best novels. ~An Empowering Fashionista   While not as celebrated as some other feminist figures, Toto Koopman certainly deserves her moments to shine, and I encourage anyone who wants a feel of the time, the people and the frenetic life of a social butterfly, to pick up this book. ~I am, Indeed Blog
