«La soledad de las parejas» is Dorothy Parker's collection of short stories, published by Ediciones B in paperback (288 pages, in Spanish).
Stories portraying isolation and relationships marked by the superficial and the conventional. With caustic humour and irony, Dorothy Parker denounces the limited role of women in North American society of the 1920s and 1930s, and slips in her obsessions: alcohol, frustrated loves, injustices and the fatuousness of the upper class.
A work for readers interested in the short story, social criticism and the satirical humour of North American interwar fiction.
Dorothy Parker was an American poet, literary critic and writer of fiction. Based in New York, she was known for her caustic wisecracks, and eye for 20th-century urban foibles.
