This volume chronicles the wild private lives of Hollywood divas. In the 1910s and 1920s, stars like Theda Bara and Barbara La Marr set the extravagant, self-indulgent pattern for their successors by enjoying affluent, pampered lives in which most of their wildest whims could be, and were, satisfied, regardless of the consequences or the strict morality of the times. By the mid 1920s, such popular screen figures as Gloria Swanson and Clara Bow (the It Girl with her strong sexual appetites) were shocking and titillating the public with their extravagant, often amoral, ways of life.
