LBB Presents Eileen G’Sell – Lipstick

Please help Left Bank Books welcome Eileen G’Sell, award-winning author & Washington University Teaching Professor of College Writing, to Left Bank Books to discuss her new ‘brilliant’ and ‘elegant’ book “Lipstick” from the “Object Lessons” series from Bloomsbury. From Revlon to Glossier, from Marilyn to Gaga, lipstick is as shape-shifting and unwieldy as femininity itself. Who wears lipstick today – as a matter of routine? And for those who do, is it out of obligation to a strict feminine standard, or some other reason entirely? “Lipstick” reconsiders the beauty world’s most conspicuous – and contentious – tool of artifice.

G’Sell will personalize and sign copies after the presentation! Personalized and signed copies will be available to be mailed anywhere in the country. For personalized copies, please order before noon on Feb. 12.
