The New York Times bestseller and the USA Today #1 Hot Fiction Pick for the summer, The Chaperone is a captivating novel about the woman who chaperoned an irreverent Louise Brooks to New York City in 1922 and the summer that would change them both.
The story in this book is a bit farfetched. The photos above are of the REAL Louise Brooks taken from web images. Now the question is: was there a real Cora? I assumed that the author just used the idea of a chaperone to invent all of the MANY ideas she was trying to cover in one book. And indeed there were MANY ideas that the author touches on.
Guess I'll need to do a bit of research. I read this book via audio and thoroughly enjoyed the time spent.
