Story
Dorothy Parker's quips and light verse have embedded themselves in the American literary landscape, but it was her prose that proved her star and demonstrated her talent as extending far beyond her time. In her fiction, she not only brought to life the urban milieu that was her bailiwick, but lay bare the uncertainties of ordinary people living ordinary lives, all told in her unflinching and deeply personal voice. In these selected stories, read for you by Elaine Stritch, we have the chance to draw upon her insight into the social and emotional realities of human nature.

Story
Few Hollywood films have had the impact of the original version of A Star Is Born. Released in 1937 and starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March, it was nominated for nine Academy Awards and won two (for best original story and best cinematography). Since then, the movie has been remade three times, attesting to its continued allure. But none have matched the genius and wit of the original.

Story
From wild and wacky to knee-slapping, laugh-out-loud fun, these humorous tales represent some of the best of recent seasons of the hit public radio series Selected Shorts. Comedian Wyatt Cenac gives a killer performance of Simon Rich’s hilarious tale of woe from the point of view of a condom in a young man’s wallet. Alec Baldwin gives a delightful over-the-top performance of James Thurber’s wonderfully silly classic tale of the day everybody in a small Ohio town thought the dam broke.

In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. Love in its fiery form may last but a moment―or forever. The need and want are obvious to both. Its all-consuming, if feels like it will always endure and never end. But passion and desire can burn bright and then burn themselves out. Our very devoted authors have much to share.

Story
Parker’s poems continue to resonate today. She was trying to make sense of who she was in a world that was busy telling her who she could and should be, regardless of how she felt about it. Aren’t we all? Having Parker’s acerbic irreverence and wit reflect our own lives back to us, in which, as she says, “good and bad are woven in a crazy plaid”, gives us reassurance, perspective, courage, and a much needed laugh.

Welcome to my show! My collections are inspired by Norwegian poetry as these lack rhyme and rhythm. Though without rhythm, these verses are lovely to read aloud. Enjoy.
