Long before it was adapted for stage and screen, “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” was a 1925 novel by Anita Loos. From which town does the flapper protagonist Lorelei Lee hail?

From a 1974 column by Walter Clemons in the Book Review:

The new paperback reprint of “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” excusably calls itself a “golden‐anniversary edition,” though we're still a year or so short of the 50th anniversary of the book Herman J. Mankiewicz accurately described in the Dec. 27, 1925, New York Times Book Review as “a gorgeously smart and intelligent piece of work.” Since then, Lorelei Lee, the blonde from Little Rock, Ark., who confided to her diary that “A kiss on the hand may make you feel very nice, but a diamond and sapphire bracelet lasts forever” has gone into American folklore and the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, has been the heroine of a Broadway play, a silent film, two Broadway musicals with Carol Channing, and a Marilyn Monroe movie. As Anita Loos cheerfully observed to an interviewer last year, “She’s harder to kill than Rasputin.”
