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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a biting wit and perceptive insight, Dorothy Parker examines the social mores of her day and exposes the darkness beneath the dazzle. Her own life exemplified this duality, for a while she was one of the most talked-about women of her day, she was also known as a \"masochist whose passion for unhappiness knew no bounds\". As philosopher Irwin Edman said, she was \"a Sappho who could combine a heartbreak with a wisecrack\". Her dissection of the jazz age in poetry and prose is collected in this volume along with articles and reviews.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dorothy Parker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44953363382319,"sku":"9780141182582","price":699.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/6428\/9071\/files\/9780141182582.jpg?v=1770799502","url":"https:\/\/lunabooks.in\/products\/the-collected-dorothy-parker-penguin-modern-classics","provider":"Luna Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
