Dorothy Parker
24 Stories
New York: Wings Books, 1992
First printing, thus.
24 of Dorothy Parker's scathing social portraits, short stories in which the cutting wit she often turned into bitter jokes is employed to describe the petty lives of her contemporaries.
Parker's ironic style is still marvelously entertaining, but her descriptions of the self-interest that governs her characters affairs is a little too dark for me.
