Lipstick: A Novel of Us and Our Young Sophisticates

New York: Grosset & Dunlap. Very Good+ in Very Good dj. (c.1929). Reprint. Hardcover. [light shelfwear, spine slightly turned, miniscule exposure of board at bottom front corner; jacket worn at extremities, with a handful of small closed tears, minor paper loss to spine ends and at bottom right corner of front panel]. A contemporary review called this romance "a vivid, fast-moving tale of the younger generation, in a millionaire summer colony setting that might be Newport, Southampton, or Miami Beach. Fast-stepping, flask-toting youth is [the author's] theme, reckless and daring, moving in a 'set unto which its own divorces, pecadillos and love-making were sufficient, content to live by its own code.' There are the nouveau riche, and the bluebloods who could claim contemporary ancestors with the first fur-peddling Astor." .
