By: Irmgard KeunThis enthralling tale of a “material girl” in 1930s Berlin is the masterpiece of a literary icon, rediscovered and restored to the same heights as such luminaries as Isherwood and Brecht.
In 1931 a young woman writer living in Germany penned her answer to Anita Loos’s Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and the era of cinematic glamour: The Artificial Silk Girl. Though a Nazi censorship board banned Irmgard Keun’s work in 1933 and destroyed all existing copies, the novel survived, as fresh and relevant today as the day it was written.
The Artificial Silk Girl is the story of Doris, beautiful and striving, who vows to write down all that happens to her as the star of her own life story. But instead of scripting what she hopes will be a quick rise to fame and fortune as either an actress or the mistress/wife of a wealthy man, she describes a slow descent into near prostitution and homelessness. Prewar Berlin is not the dazzling and exciting city of promise it seems; Doris unwittingly reveals a bleak, seamy urban landscape.

Neck came frayed/cut
Size: Large, Color: White
Poor quality. The collar/neck area was cut up/frayed. Never had a chance to return this shirt in the allocated amount of time. Guess we have an expensive rag.

Only one minor issue
Color: Haze Blue, Dark Red, Black, Size: Medium
I got these I ran them through the laundry. They didn't seem to bleed at all.
I like short sleeve because when I put a long sleeve on under a shirt the sleeves bunch up behind my elbow and I have a hard time pulling the inner sleeve forward.
My only complaint is there is no neck tag to indicate which side is front and which is the back of the shirt.
