Imaginary Friends

release date: Nov 25, 2009
Imaginary Friends
The bestselling author of I Feel Bad About My Neck brilliantly and hilariously resuscitates Lillian Hellman and Mary McCarthy—two bigger-than-life feuding writers—to give them a post-mortem second act, and the chance to really air their differences. Although Lillian Hellman and Mary McCarthy probably only met once in their lives, their names will be linked forever in the history of American literary feuds: they were legendary enemies, especially after McCarthy famously announced to the world that every word Hellman wrote was a lie, “including ‘and’ and ‘the.’” The public battle, and the legal squabbling, that ensued ended, unsatisfactorily for all, with Hellman’s death. “A sharp-eyed and even sharper-clawed memory-play.... Provides...guilty pleasures, keeping the repartee both snappy and snappish.” —The Wall Street Journal

El coll no enganya
Una mirada sincera i hilarant sobre les dones madures Nora Ephron ha estat nominada tres vegades a l’Oscar pels guions de Quan en Harry va trobar la Sally, Silkwood i Alguna cosa per recordar El coll no enganya ha estat a la llista dels llibres més venuts del New York Times i s’ha venut a més de trenta països Un llibre hilarant sobre la maduresa femenina Lluny de l’imaginari masculí en què les dones només existeixen fins als trenta anys, a les dones de quaranta, i més, els segueix interessant la vida: l’amor, els cosmètics, la política, els fills, la feina, les ulleres de sol i les bifocals, els pisos i els secrets de la cuina més moderna... Amb un to despreocupat, personal i planer, i amb un sentit de l’humor agut i àcid, Nora Ephron aborda les tribulacions de la dona madura moderna (la menopausa, la casa sense els nens, els estralls físics del pas dels anys, els líftings...) i recorda els moments àlgids de la seva joventut (la descoberta d’alguns plats com el strudel de col, els primers amors, els seus glamorosos dies com a becària de la Casa Blanca, i que no es malinterpreti...) «No cal ser una novaiorquesa postmenopàusica amb un look liberal i uns ingressos acceptables per divertir- se amb la visió de la vida de Nora Ephron» (Kirkus Review). «Tots els llibres que he llegit sobre l’edat diuen que fer-se gran és magnífic. El que és magnífic és madurar, tenir seny i ser savi, i trobar-se en aquell punt en què entens de què va la vida. No suporto la gent que diu aquesta mena de coses. En què pensen? És que no tenen coll?» (El coll no enganya i altres reflexions sobre ser dona). Traducció de Mar Albacar Nora Ephron Va néixer l’any 1941 a Nova York i es va educar a Los Angeles.

Il collo mi fa impazzire
Il collo è il primo a mostrare i segni dell’età. C’è chi lo nasconde, c’è chi va in clinica, c’è chi si dispera. Nora Ephron ci ha ragionato sopra, spudorata e coraggiosa, con dolore e senso dell’umorismo. Ne è uscito un libro, volato in testa alle classifiche americane, che parla alle donne, di donne e per le donne (non più giovani e giovani).

Scribble Scribble

Scribble Scribble
This volume is a collection of the columns the author wrote for Esquire magazine from 1975 to 1977. Her subject was the media, especially print journalism. She presents her opinions of 1970''s media -- from People magazine, Daniel Schorr and the Assassination reporters, to the Palm Beach Social Pictorial, Gourmet magazine and the lure and history of the Double-Crostic. Stabbing, tackling and (occasionally) hugging her colleagues of the press and screen, the author reveals her contempt for the Haldeman-CBS episode; her passion for Upstairs, Downstairs; and her jaundiced view of Brendan Gill on The New Yorker and Teddy White on anything.
