edit data

Vivian Dunn’s debut novel, For the Love of Many, is a window into the forgotten history of queerness in New York City during the Roaring Twenties. Using real people of the past, Dunn tells the story of two Broadway chorus girls who found love through all they’d had to endure in show business.

A lover of old films, books, and history, Dunn is particularly drawn to the histories of countercultural and marginalized peoples, how the history of the LGBTQ+ community intersects and unites all. Beauty as a vehicle for truth is an obsession, and the Old Hollywood actress Joan Crawford fascinates her.

I would have to say that the cover was the most difficult part, likely because I had no idea what I was doing. The cover is hand-drawn and digitally painted. Working with an artist during the pandemic, without either of us knowing what we were doing, was difficult. I recommend finding someone with experience to at least help you out, even if you want to use a specific artist who may not have a clue about book covers. For my next novel, I plan to do things differently, but it was a learning experience!(less)
