Anne Chisholm presents a vivid portrait of a woman who embodied the restless spirit of the 1920s, scandalised polite society throughout the 1930s, and burned with a fierce, uncompromising passion for social justice. Cunard's tireless campaigning against racism — most notably through her landmark anthology Negro — and her love affairs with some of the era's greatest artists and intellectuals are detailed with rigorous research and narrative flair. Written with both sympathy and unflinching honesty, this biography illustrates why Nancy Cunard was simultaneously celebrated and ostracised, a shooting star whose brilliance was matched only by her self-destruction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887996711131,"sku":"2026200009351-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/8b720d39-10f2-478a-a5a2-38fc272b273e.png?v=1781751942","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009351-secondhand-nancy-cunard","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
