90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books

What can you say, when a man asks you to dance with him? I most certainly will not dance with you. I'll see you in hell first. Why, thank you, I'd like to awfully, but I'm having labour pains.

Acerbic, pithy and vibrant, Dorothy Parker's writings capture the dizzying decadence of Jazz Age New York. Though Parker refuses to be swept along—she gleefully deconstructs its hypocrisy, prejudice and taboos with style and precision.

Horsie is a testament to Parker's unmatched wit and keen observations, presenting the reader with a rich tapestry of the social dynamics of the era.
