Paris in the wake of the First World War was a vibrant, bohemian city that rivaled Berlin for its sexual liberation and queer culture. Among the writers, artists, musicians, and intellectuals who flocked to the city were queer women who did more than live openly - they made lesbianism chic. Natalie Clifford Barney, Dolly Wilde, Ethel Waters, Sylvia Beach, Josephine Baker, and more were part of a thriving sapphic community known as Paris-Lesbos. Paris in the interwar years wasn’t just the City of Love; it was a city for women who loved women. This is Wild Violets hosted by Amanda Timpson, a podcast that dives deep into the lives and loves of Paris-Lesbos in years between the First and Second World Wars. It’s basically ‘The L Word’ soaked in champagne.
