At Home in Our Sounds

At Home in Our Sounds links the advent of jazz music with concurrent social and political developments in Interwar Paris. Other studies of this period often focus on jazz icons, but this book instead focuses on the experiences of women and working-class musicians and performers. Drawing on police records, musical recordings, personal stories, and visual culture, this is an interdisciplinary work on jazz music in Paris.
