On Substack, I’m building a cultural and literary salon and a community for the like-minded. We’re female-focused, but men are most welcome, especially if well-behaved. 😉
Some think of a salon as a place to get your hair done. Me, I think of Madame de Staël and her infamous salons, where she hosted the crème de la crème of 18th century intellectuals, artists, & politicians. Guess what they, too, discussed? HISTORY. SEX. POWER. And they seeded a revolution or two!
Join me in my salon as we explore the lives of women that both seduced the world and ruled it, along with their equally dangerous consorts, from a place of obsessive historical research. My favorite part is to connect it all to its meaning to us today.
