How lucky the world is, to have had such a forward- thinking mind as Gertrude Stein!

[@thegert]

Thanks for this brief but well-summarized bio of Stein. A great intro for anyone who wants to know a bit about her and hopefully prompts then to read both some of her works and works about her.

[@throughmyeyes9940]

of that we're certain

The deepest thing in any one is the conviction of the bad luck that follows boasting. Gertrude Stein

[@carolannemckenzie3849]

Yes! Our primeval superstitions are so strong in that regard. Love your channel

[@richardheikkila4146]

She has an interesting gravestone at Pere lachaise cemetery. Her name is on one side and Alice B. Toklas' name is on the opposite side.

[@aliciagaspardealba5265]

What’s so interesting? She is buried next to her wife.

[@houdannycomedymagic8642]

Thanks! A good starting point for knowing more about her (after seeing Midnight in Paris).

[@AmiMidnite]

Interesting Bio, became interested through reading F.Scott Fitzgerald and watching Midnight in Paris....but I gotta say, WHY are you using music from the Sims3 in the background? lol

[@stine_0788]

You too?

[@vanessaajohn]

I didn't know what to except but I very quickly became an admirer.

[@carolannemckenzie3849]

Catharine Stimpson reminds me of Una, Lady Troubridge, the lover of Radclyffe Hall. May I respectfully suggest a short biog of RH? Like Gertrude, a fascinating and narcissistic, character!

[@rockstar6c]

The SIMS music in background hahahaha

I enjoyed reading about Gertrude Stein and her works, but was she a good writer?

[@Caligari...]

Whats a good writer ? Was Picasso a good artist ?

[@yonathanasefaw9001]

@@Caligari... I'm pretty sure Picasso was one of the great painters in the world.

[@carolannemckenzie3849]

Yonathan, personally I dislike Gertrude's scribblings but I do admire her magnificent face and her patronage of the arts. Thank goodness for rich dilettantes 😏
