Edith Piaf, the unknown icon: catalog of her work 1935-2023

Authors: Steve Normandin and László Pusztai

In all the books devoted to Édith Piaf, much is said about her life and the highlights of her career, but what about her work, her records, and her stage work? For the first time ever, a book is highlighting Piaf's recording heritage and her work as a performer.
Preface by Isabelle Boulay.

A Hungarian and a Quebecer join forces to compile the first catalog of the work of French singer Édith Piaf (1915-1963). What remains of the important heritage Piaf left us? Rare photos, revision and explanations of the discography, a worldwide catalog of records released between 1935 and 1963, television programs, tours in Canada—particularly Quebec—and the myth of Eastern Europe. This book sheds new light on the little-known work of an icon of French song.
