From her Academy Award—nominated screenplays to her
bestselling fiction and essays, Nora Ephron is one of
America’s most gifted, prolific, and versatile writers. In
this classic collection of magazine articles, Ephron does
what she does best: embrace American culture with love,
cynicism, and unmatched wit. From tracking down the
beginnings of the self-help movement to dressing down the
fashion world’s most powerful publication to capturing a
glimpse of a legendary movie in the making, these timeless
pieces tap into our enduring obsessions with celebrity,
food, romance, clothes, entertainment, and sex. Whether
casting her ingenious eye on renowned director Mike
Nichols, Cosmopolitan magazine founder Helen Gurley Brown—
or herself, as she chronicles her own beauty makeover—
Ephron deftly weaves her journalistic skill with the
intimate style of an essayist and the incomparable talent
of a great storyteller.
