I will be reading Axel Madsen’s The Sewing Circle: Hollywood’s Hollywood's Greatest Secret—Female Stars Who Loved Other Women. The book will dive into three famous Hollywood actresses of the silver screen including Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich. The symbols of “lavender marriages” and “violets” in terms of queer women and its connections to these actresses.
There is a second book titled The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid which tells the fictional story of two queer actresses during the silver screen era. I will be cross referencing these two books alongside The Celluloid Closet in order to gain insight to the lives of queer and trans actors during this time.
