Sarah Bernhardt was a French stage actor who became a global
superstar in the late nineteenth century-the Lady Gaga of her
day-and is still considered to be one of the greatest performers of
all time. This fast-paced account of her life, filled with
provocative detail, brilliantly follows the transformation of a
girl of humble origins, born to a courtesan, into a fabulously
talented, wealthy, and beloved icon. Not only was her acting
trajectory remarkable, but her personal life was filled with
jaw-dropping exploits, and she was extravagantly eccentric, living
with a series of exotic animals and sleeping in a coffin. She grew
to be deeply admired around the world, despite her unabashed and
public promiscuity at a time when convention was king; she slept
with each of her leading men and proudly raised a son without a
husband. A fascinating and fast-paced deep dive into the world of
the divine Sarah. Illustrated with more than sixty-five photos of
Bernhardt on stage, in film, and in real life.
