Specificatii
2016 IndieFab Honorable Mention in Popular Culture. Mel Gordon,
author of Voluptuous Panic, the celebrated history about the sex
culture of Weimar Berlin, returns with a stunningly illustrated
look at Paris, The City of Pleasure, prior to and during German
occupation during World War II.The book Horizontal Collaboration
encompasses the Jazz Age, Depression, World War and Occupation, and
Liberation. It concludes with the shuttering of the licensed
brothels in 1946, which some Parisian intellectuals thought was the
final destruction of French civilization.The term Horizontal
Collaboration refers to the sexual liaisons between French
civilians and German occupiers from 1940 to 1944. These were
extremely widespread and included both individual wartime
relationships in addition to prostitution. As Allied armies swept
across the French countryside, thousands of young women--and some
men--were savagely punished by the authorities or by vigilante
crowds, becoming a source of deep national shame.Author Gordon
redefines the pejorative term to mean something much broader:
French men and women horizontally collaborated to overcome all
social obstacles, divisions, and regulations. These obstacles
include married and unmarried couples, straights and homosexuals,
foreigners and locals, gun-toting soldiers and their vanquished
subjects. The natural yearning for sexual pleasure equally
corrupted all cohabitating partners.This book rediscovers a
remarkable time when the aesthetic and erotic capitol of Europe
experienced remarkable heights and shameful lows. . . . Hundreds of
images, most never before seen in a book, encompass this
fascinating but little-known history.
