Poems, by Dorothy ParkerEveryman's Library

As the saying goes: "It's a marathon, not a sprint." And what better way to maintain stamina and mental equilibrium during tense times than a dose of wit? Two women writers — one a long-deceased legend; the other a debut novelist — give readers reason to keep calm and smile on.

In my house, every time the mail brings a dread notice from, say, the Department of Motor Vehicles, one of us humans is bound to mutter, "What Fresh Hell Is This?" If, for nothing else but that line, Dorothy Parker is a demigod. But, of course there's plenty else.

In her poems, short stories and surgical knife-sharp reviews for magazines like Vanity Fairand The New Yorker, Parker brought into being one of the signature voices of the 1920s: wry, risqué and hardboiled, swaddled in a cocoon coat of humor.
