A contemporary biography of a notorious actress, dancer, and playwright who scandalized sex-obsessed Berlin during the 1920s chronicles the life of Anita Berber, who often haunted hotel lobbies, nightclubs and casinos, radiantly naked except for an elegant sable wrap, a pet monkey hanging from her neck, and a silver brooch packed with cocaine.
