Self-depricating, bitingly satirical, and surprisingly thought-provoking, Dorothy Parker's first collection of poetry comments on love and the relations between men and women with quick wit and lyrical verse. First published as a collection in 1926, the poetry featured in Enough Rope reflects the famous wit that Dorothy Parker is so widely loved for. A founding member of the Algonquin Round Table writers' group, Parker often presents a cynical analysis of love, which entertains as much as her verse captivates. This volume features many of Parker's best-known poetry, including: -'Threnody' - 'The Small Hours' - 'The False Friends' - 'The Trifler' - 'A Very Short Song' - 'A Well-Worn Story' - 'Convalescent' - 'The Dark Girl's Rhyme' Specialist poetry imprint Ragged Hand has proudly republished Enough Rope in this beautiful new volume and will make the perfect addition to the bookshelves of Dorothy Parker fans and those interested in Jazz Age poetry.
The Miracles and Millions Saga Two minds, two bodies, two hearts, one soul. With the vile gang behind all the stalking and attempts on Dorothy's life and mental stability now revealed and arrested, she can return to a life of normality and begin to enjoy the trappings of being one of the wealthiest women around. The perpetrators were a surprise, for sure. To say nothing of disappointing. However, they are out of the way, ergo it seems logical that things will settle down. A good routine, good friends, a supportive family and bucket loads of cash should be enough to ensure smooth running. But things have an awful habit of not going too well for Dorothy. And when another sanity-threatening problem develops, she has to look for ever more outrageous ways to solve it. With her family now at stake, Dorothy is prepared to do almost anything to protect them. With a bank balance big enough to accommodate the egos of those who are prepared to do the dirty work, nothing will stop her from defending those she loves. Wealth is sometimes a double edged sword. Miracles and Millions - A Story of Vengeance.
