description: Gluck was a rebel. She dressed as a man ~ in clothes designed by Victor Steibel and EIsa Schiaparelli; she had passionate love affairs with Society women, chose her own monosyllabic name, acknowledged no influence in her painting and exhibited her work only in 'one man' shows. In this authorized and fully illustrated biography Diana Souhami interweaves the pictures, people and events that made up Gluck's life. With intimate reference to unpublished letters, diaries and manuscripts she reveals her as an extraordinary individual and an undervalued artist. Exhibitions of her paintings in the 1920s and 1930s were highly praised.
