Recommended by Heywood Hill Reader Lucy Moore:
'If, like me, you can’t ever read enough about the Lost Generation of artists and layabouts in Paris in the 1920s, Amanda Vaill’s Everybody Was So Young (1998) is for you - a brilliant joint biography of Gerald and Sara Murphy who were at the centre of that world, their lives touched in equal measure by glamour and tragedy.'
Lucy Moore is a biographer, at work on a book about the Civil War memoirist Ann Fanshawe.
