Joséphine : Josephine Baker, la danse, la résistance

The book highlights Josephine’s resilience from a young age—I'm curious what drew the author to explore these formative moments and how they shaped her later achievements.

Her stage presence seems almost alive on the pages. I’d love to hear if readers felt the same, or if some moments felt more like a description than an experience.

Balancing her activism, fame, and personal struggles must have been challenging—what guided the choices about what to include or leave out for young readers?
