  1. Syed Yaseen Ahmed

    Enjoyed the poetry and essays, but some of the journalistic pieces felt a little dated. Overall, a good collection for Parker fans.

  2. Jasprit Singh

    A comprehensive collection that showcases Parker’s range. The added material was a bonus. Definitely worth the purchase.

  3. Munulu Ringa

    Found some of the references obscure, but Parker’s writing style is undeniably captivating. A mixed bag, but mostly good.

  4. Aslam M U

    Uneven collection. Some brilliant pieces mixed with some that didn’t age well. Good introduction but not definitive.

  5. Ashish Kumar

    Enjoyable read, but I think the selection could have been stronger. Still a good introduction to Dorothy Parker.

  6. Aaryan Narula

    Absolutely brilliant! Parker’s observations are timeless. This collection is a treasure. Only wish there were more of her short stories.

  7. Tushar Choudhary

    Parker’s wit is as sharp as ever! A great introduction to her work, though the selection felt a bit uneven at times. Still, worth the read.

  8. Umesh Kumar

    A fascinating glimpse into the mind of Dorothy Parker. Some pieces resonated more than others, but I found it enjoyable.

  9. Varun Dwivedi

    Some of the stories fell flat for me, but the witty verses made up for it. Parker is a unique voice.

  10. Ishan Srivastava

    Loved rediscovering Parker’s sharp tongue and insightful observations. This collection is a must-have for any lit lover.

  11. Manvav Gupta

    Parker’s writing is as relevant today as it was back then. This collection is a gem, a mix of emotions, humor and sadness.

  12. Mani Prakash

    Parker’s humor is dark and delightful. This portable edition is perfect for carrying around. Some of the content is not holding up well in modern time.
