The Collected Dorothy Parker by Dorothy Parker, Brendan Gill
4.0
I am so mad that I had never heard of Dorothy Parker before accidentally stumbling on this book at a secondhand shop.
She was such a brilliant lady, a talented, sharp author but also a terrific human being from what I can gather. I was surprised to find most of her writing to be still so relevant and relatable today. I really liked some of her poetry but her short stories really were what most appealed to me.
I'm glad to have bought this lovely edition but kind of sad that I've now read all we have of hers. I wish there was more to be found!
