Title: Margherita
Description: "1920: Twenty-five-year-old Margherita, who runs the newspapers in her home town of Treviso, becomes Venice's first lady through her marriage to the noble Antonio Revedin. Today her name is forgotten: But Margherita knew how to make herself the center of a city that was reinventing itself through her unbiased manner. Peggy Guggenheim becomes her best friend, and the artist parties on the terrace of the Hotel Excelsior, to which she invited Greta Garbo, Coco Chanel, Clark Gable and Pablo Picasso, become legendary."--Translation of synopsis on back cover.
