From the rear cover
THE STUNNING BIOGRAPHICAL PORTRAITS IN Modern Girls, Shining Stars, the Skies of Tokyo explore the lives of five women -- two actresses, two writers, and a painter -- who did their best to stand up and cause more trouble than was considered proper in Japanese society. Their lives stretch across decades of explosive cultural and political transformations in Japan. Birnbaum draws on interviews, memoirs, newspaper reports, and fictional accounts to reveal the lives of women whose artistic and romantic passions challenged the status quo and influenced the attitudes of their day.
