From the bestselling author of I Feel Bad About My Neck: two classic collections of uproarious essays tackling everything from feminism to the media, from politics to beauty products, with her inimitable charm and distinctive wit.

This edition brings together some of Ephron's most famous writing on a generation of women (and men) who helped shape the way we live now, and on events ranging from the Watergate scandal to the Pillsbury Bake-Off. In these sharp, hilariously entertaining, and vividly observed pieces, Ephron illuminates an era with wicked honesty and insight. From the famous "A Few Words About Breasts" to important pieces on her time working for the New York Post and Gourmet Magazine, these essays show Ephron at her very best.

"Truly funny and wonderfully wise." --Chicago Tribune

"Witty whiplash prose--a delight to read." --Publishers Weekly

"Nora Ephron can write about anything better than anybody else can write about anything." --The New York Times

"Nora Ephron is, in essence, one of the original bloggers--and if everyone could write like her, what a lovely place the Internet would be. . . . telling stories that were, more often than not, ultimately about herself, and doing so with such warmth, wit and skill that they became universal." --The Seattle Times

"Always funny." --Mademoiselle

"Pure delight." --Playboy
