Velvet-Club Connecting Lesbians & Bi-women around the World

Scandal, intoxication and lies flourish in the silent film studios of Paris. Gay's the Word bookshop invites you to this book event celebrating publication of Petite Mort - a stunningly written novel of murder and Sapphic seduction set in the world of the French Silent film industry. A FREE event. Complimentary refreshments provided. A silent film, destroyed in a fire in 1913 at the Path studio, before it was seen even by its director. A lowly seamstress, who makes the costumes she should be wearing, but believes her talent - and the secret she keeps too - will soon get her a dressing room of her own. A beautiful house in Paris, with a curving staircase, a lake, and locked rooms. A famous - and dashing - creator of spectacular cinematic illusions, husband to a beautiful, volatile actress, the most adored icon of the Parisian studios. All fit together, like scenes in a movie.
