Which of these facts are true?
This era was also known as the Jazz Age
There were crazy fads, like sitting on top of a flagpole
The 1929 stock market crash brought the good times to an end
 
Flappers, flag-pole sitting, and the Ford Model T–these are just a few of the things that instantly conjure up a unique era–the Roaring Twenties.


It was the bees' knees, the cat's meow. If you're not familiar with 1920s slang, all the more reason to read this fascinating look at that wild, exciting decade. It began on the heels of one tragedy--the flu pandemic of 1918--and ended with another: the start of the Great Depression. But in between there were plenty of good times--the Model T cars that Henry Ford made were cheap enough for the masses, the new sound of jazz heated up speakeasies and nightclubs during the time of Prohibition. Women, recently given the right to vote, cut their long hair into bobs, wore short skirts and makeup, and danced the Charleston (sometimes in marathons that lasted days). Michele Mortlock hits all the highlights of this heady age that still feels modern even a hundred years later.


「蜜蜂的膝蓋」、「貓咪喵喵叫」,如果你不熟悉這些 1920 年代的俚語,那更要看看這本有趣的書,帶你回到那瘋狂刺激的 20 年代。故事始於一場悲劇—— 1918 年流感大爆發,並以另一場悲劇收場:經濟大蕭條的開始。但是這段期間仍然有許多美好時光——人人皆有能力購買由福特汽車公司出產的 T 行車、爵士樂的誕生讓禁酒令期間的地下酒吧和夜總會變得更加熱鬧。在那個年代,女性剛取得投票權,她們將長髮剪成鮑伯頭、穿起短裙並上了妝,還跳起了查爾斯頓舞(有時候連跳好幾天)。米歇爾.莫特洛克細膩描繪出這個年代的所有亮點,一切都令人陶醉,即使過了一百年依然不退潮流。
