This is the conclusion of the two-volume Gentlemind. Antonio Lapone is a great stylist and this album set in post-war Manhattan's publishing world and an Esquire-like magazine for sophisticated men, allows Lapone to create--or recreate--dozens of period magazine covers.
From the publisher:
New York, 1940.
Navit, a penniless young artist, inherits a somewhat old-fashioned charming journal: 'Gentlemind'.
Combative, intelligent and daring, she takes on the insane challenge of making it a modern magazine.
Haunted by the memory of her lover who disappeared on the front lines in Europe, she must face the reality of an American society in the middle of a golden age but resolutely macho ...
A deeply touching story, over three decades, of the female American dream!
Résumé
New-York, 1940.
Navit, une jeune artiste désargentée, hérite d'un journal de charme quelque peu désuet : 'Gentlemind'.
Combative, intelligente et audacieuse, elle s'improvise patronne de presse et se lance le défi insensé d'en faire un magazine moderne.
Hantée par le souvenir de son amant disparu sur le front en Europe, elle doit affronter la réalité d'une société américaine en plein âge d'or mais résolument machiste...
Un récit profondément touchant, sur trois décennies, du rêve américain au féminin !
