Princess Daizy by Judith Krantz


Have you ever imagined living to high society’s world? If yes, would you prefer to have such an opulence in your life? Well, this is according to each person, his overview in life. To choose if he desires to deal with aristocratic life or just having a normal life. For some people there is a lot of dreaming and for others not. Through the high social class everything consider to be changeable, but first of all the appearance and the good - looking.
To begin with, Judith Krantz, the famous author of Princess Daizy book supports every department of the high - life. She is a capitalist lady that believes on aristocracy, especially having a lot of money. She deems that a young, beautiful and rich woman is more desirable rather being old, ugly and without money. She considers the female model, a woman that has money through her life, it is always appropriate to keep her own beauty. With her book ‘ Princess Daizy’ wants to bring out issues dealing with aristocracy, glamour , status and success. That every woman should keep this order in her life, to look for the bourgeois fancies of aristocracy. Through her work estimates the important issue of art. As Alex Witchel says , “ every woman knows that a good clothes fantasy is the only thing to rival a good sex fantasy.” For her, art is a good instrument for women. This art can give to her a nice appearance so that her beauty revealed. That’s why she gives so attention to her hero’s hair. This sounds ironic for someone who might read the book for a first time especially if he belongs to the low social class. But , people like Mrs. Krantz take it without this irony because they think with the mind of being in high social class. For Krantz, if you have the money, you can develop in such a situation.
In contrast with Cline James, who criticizes such an idea. From the beginning, he explores his ironic tone through Krantz’s book, Princess Daizy. He is a socialist man, who supports the other side that Krantz does. He criticizes her lack of literary weight by saying that there isn’t any sense through her book. He leaves his ironic tone to touch the entire book. That lower people will not think the life of high status in such a way.
He argues that all should be equal in life. Not only women who have the money deserve to have such a good appearance in society. To look always on their beauty. James, denies this idea by the view of a man. He identifies that women of high society give a fortune in order to engage an attractive appearance. For him, this is unacceptable. Aristocratic women may have the money but this does not mean that they put on surgeries, for instance to look younger.
However, considering the world today, it is appropriate for a woman to be herself in society. Every woman wants to keep her beauty in any way so that she will be attracted by men. By caring herself, it wins a lot of confidence and looks comfortable through her appearance. She wants to adapt her own image in society. Living in the modern world, in the world where everything happened. Specifically, in the latest sector of technology which has it’s own miracles through. For those who have the money and really want to change something for their appearance, technology is a solution. Concentrating on woman’s world , her appearance take the most important role in society. In Cyprus, there are such instances. Especially, important women who belong to the department of high social class, such as women in politics or even women who their husbands have an authority position in society. These women should always look nice and still remain their beauty even though they may interest on having a surgery. The world of media is so strong today and is more attracted when it shows a world of that kind of women. Obviously, woman’s popularity has as a prototype her appearance.
On the other, men’s world is completely different. Men might not attach so the idea that women have for their appearance. Having money or not, men do not develop so much on their looking. The only reason is that men get always attracted by women. They want women to have an attractive appearance, to expand their beauty. According to nature, women should look for themselves with money or not having as an expectation their own beauty and appearance. With that image men then will not look for attractiveness. So, men could understand that it’s woman’s nature to built on such an idea.
To conclude, women’s appearance seems to be a valuable jeweler for them. It might be acoustic as ironic, but it is not. Showing of their beauty, it is the reason to represent as women. Even if they are rich or not, they only know why they devote so much on their beauties. If someone wonders, why women pick up their own interest on having a finery appearance? A woman could answer “ that is woman’s world” so you should accept that “a woman cannot live without all these pleasure things that gives her life.”
