Krátky popis
Ellen is a single artist living alone on New York’s Upper West Side
in the 1970s. She is beset by old boyfriends, paint pigment
choices, and, occasionally, by 'radiances' - episodes of joyous,
reckless unreality. Under the influence of 'radiances' she becomes
Princess Esmeralda, and West 72nd Street becomes the kingdom over
which she rules.Life as Esmeralda is a liberating experience for
Ellen, who, despite the chaos and stigma these episodes can bring,
relishes the respite from the confines of the everyday. And yet
those around her, particularly the men in her life, are threatened
by her incarnation as Esmeralda, and by the freedom that it gives
her. The Princess of 72nd Street is Elaine Kraf's witty, dizzyingly
inventive take on female liberation and mental health, a work of
immense literary power and unbridled energy.Provocative at the time
of its publication in 1979 and thoroughly iconoclastic, it is a
remarkable portrait of an unforgettable woman.
