Summary:
Two classic series of Nora Ephron’s uproarious essays-tackling everything from feminism to the media, from politics to beauty products, with her inimitable charm and distinctive wit-now obtainable in one audiobook.
This edition includes some of Ephron’s most well-known writing on a generation of women (and men) who helped shape just how we live now, and on events ranging from the Watergate scandal towards the Pillsbury Bake-Off. In these sharp, hilariously engaging, and vividly noticed items, Ephron illuminates a time with wicked honesty and insight. Through the famous “A Few Words About Chest” to important pieces on her period working for the brand new York Post and Gourmet Magazine, these essays display Ephron at her absolute best.
