Book Reviews of Dorothy Parker: In Her Own Words

Book Review: Dorothy's Irreverence
Summary: 5 Stars

I enjoyed reading Dorothy Parker's view of life which was colored by her childhood in New York. It's almost a defense of hers against the lack of love she received and the wrong choices she made during the speakeasy era. My mother was a "flapper" and this book helped me pick up on the spirit of those times. It's hard to tell which words of Dorothy's I should take seriously and which are part of her wonderful sense of humor.
