Melissa Glass’s Reviews > Mademoiselle: Coco Chanel and the Pulse of History > Status Update

By pg. 60 I am really loving all the connections the author is making between the individual and the moment in time. For example: “we know the confluence of early events that drove Chanel in her ambition, but what accounts for Capel’s open-mindedness”? No other biography on Chanel gets into this and it has really limited my thinking about her until now. It is as if we were led to believe Boys love was why.
