Well-Done Exploration of Pariss Creative Geniuses in the Jazz AgeBy A ReaderFREE AS GODS: MODERNISM: HOW THE JAZZ AGE REINVENTED MODERNISMBy Charles Riley If you are an aficionado of jazz; of writers like Hemingway and Fitzgerald; of artists like Picasso and ; this book is for you. Rileyrsquo;s amazing in-depth knowledge of the arts in the decade between WWI and the Depression will astound and delight the reader. He delves into the ldquo;cross-pollenizationrdquo; of all the creative artists living in Paris during this momentous time; and meticulously ties all their influences together. Who knew that jazz music influence ballet; and vice-versa? Or that artists and writers collaborated together and fed each otherrsquo;s creative impulses? It was a pleasure to read little-known and amusing and heart-wrenching vignettes about favorite writers; musicians; dancers; and artists and their many interactions and achievements. Riley recreates a vibrant world that makes readers wish they; too; could have been in Paris; participating and observing these groundbreaking and lasting artistic accomplishments that have helped to shape our artistic world today. The legacy of those years is truly done justice by Rileyrsquo;s scholarship and his accessible prose.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
