Now available as a stand-alone edition, the famous humorist's second collection of poetry ranges from lighthearted self-deprecation to gleefully acid-tongued satire and dark comedy. One of the Jazz Age's most beloved poets, Dorothy Parker earned her reputation as the wittiest woman in America with her popular light verse, which was regularly published in Vanity Fair, Life, and The New Yorker . Her debut poetry collection, Enough Rope , was a runaway bestseller, and she followed it up in 1928 with the equally delightful collection Sunset Gun.
