Gentlemen Prefer Blondes

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: The Intimate Diary of a Professional Lady is a 1925 comic novel written by American author Anita Loos. The story primarily follows the escapades and dalliances of a young blonde flapper in New York and Europe during the Roaring Twenties. It is one of several famous novels published that year—including F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and Carl Van Vechten's Firecrackers—which chronicle the hedonistic era known as the Jazz Age.
