She said what?!’

a new item to meappropriatestyle

featuring statements from outspoken women:

opinions, outlooks, observations

which they were more than willing to share.

 

…

American writer Dorothy Parker:

poet, short story writer, satirist, activist

contributor to Vanity Fair,  Esquire, The New York (which she help found)-

was actively engaged in the social issues of her time:

equality, freedom, civil liberties.

…

she said what?!, dorothy parker at work

Dorothy Parker, at her craft

…

Known within the New York City literary circuit (and further flung)

for her scathing wit, sharp remarks and barbed retorts-

she was a woman of fierce talent and spirit.

She wrote and said what she thought/felt.

Admired by friends and critics alike, her writings/comments were

provocative, never sugar coated, sometimes bitter to swallow

and worth a moment to ponder.

…
