The Collected Dorothy Parker
by Dorothy Parker
Parker, more than any of her contemporaries, captured the spirit of her age in her writing.
The decadent 1920s and 1930s in New York were a time of great experiment and daring for women. For the rich, life seemed a continual party, but the excesses took their emotional toll.
With a biting wit and perceptive insight, Dorothy Parker examines the social mores of her day and exposes the darkness beneath the dazzle.
