"The way that Dorothy Parker navigates her own darkness with wit, and her commentary on what it was like to be a woman in America in the 1920s is wildly compelling. The amazing thing about this book is you can open to any page and read a great short story. Parker makes for a wonderful author to read aloud to your lover."

"Altman! Pound for pound probably my favorite filmmaker. I’m deeply in love with Short Cuts as well, but Nashville was my first… and you never forget your first. The world, the performances, the music — all seamless. Altman had a way of saying things without ever showing his hand. His world washes over you — and as it does, your heart fills to bursting."

Book Favorite

"Davis is the ultimate prose stylist and this collection of short fiction proved addictive on many a late night. Her narrators are quirky, self-conscious, and sometimes humorously obsessive. Many of the stories are only a page or two long. But within those pages are observations that reveal the precise tics and nuances that make us indelibly who we are."
