LITERATURE: Parker

I don’t think I should be reading "The Portable Dorothy Parker" all the way through–many of the conversations are starting to sound too much alike, and I feel like I’m lost in "The Early Show"  forever with Nick and Nora Charles. 

But this line is necessary to share with you, and makes any story worthwhile reading just to find such a gem.  From "Here We Are":  "There was a silence with things going on in it."

Oh boy.  Wish I’d have thought of that one.
