"This author has been a part of my life for decades. Her poetry runs the gamut from salty to spiritual, but never boring. Her poetry becomes a part of life, because she can say so much with so few words."

  • The delightful Dorothy! Her poems are occasionally heartfelt, but generally cynical and funny. I bought this book as a pick-me-up, and it delivered. It was particularly great to have all the unpublished poems as well, many of which are hilarious. Fantastic book!
  • Dorothy Parker had a gift for translating personal romantic misery into amusing, cathartic, unexpectedly resonant poetry. Where she couldn't find happiness she shared comfort and sass to her fellow scarred hearts.

    Her poems are short, pointed, witty, and memorable. Easy to consume and lasting in nutritional value. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
  • This author has been a part of my life for decades. Her poetry runs the gamut from salty to spiritual, but never boring. Her poetry becomes a part of life, because she can say so much with so few words.
  • I cannot recommend this book enough.
  • Read this...read this...read this!!! You will not regret it. Dorothy Parker was a woman ahead of her time.
  • Really enjoyed reading this book!
  • It's amazing that these poems,written well over half a century ago,still retain their bite,impact and immediacy. And it's rather inspiring that Ms. Parker,in spite of her personal demons, still managed to produce such an impressive body of work. A very good introduction to her writing,especially if you only know her from the movie made about her,or just as one of several people who hung around a certain hotel in NY,trading quips with other writers. Check this one out,you're in for a treat..!
