Édith Piaf : A Cultural History, Hardcover by Looseley, David, ISBN 1781382573, ISBN-13 9781781382578, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK This accessible study explores French torch singer Edith Piaf as a symbol of French identity and a cultural icon recognized around the world. The author argues that her status as an icon was deliberately invented, by Piaf and others, and explains how this cultural phenomenon began and what is has come to mean. Th includes a chronology of her life and career; the detailed chronology continues after her death with information on tributes, covers, films, documentaries, musicals, lost recordings, and other outgrowths of her work after her death in 1963.
