#wickedwhispers @eggs @alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Dorothy Parker was cremated, but on the memorial plaque where her ashes were laid, she suggested as her final words, “Excuse my dust.“

Eggs Perfect 🫶🏻👏🏻 2w
TheBookHippie She was moved and has a proper grave now 🙃🙂🙃with Inscription
Leave for her a red young rose,
Go your way, and save your pity;
She is happy, for she knows
That her dust is very pretty.
2w
TieDyeDude @TheBookHippie I like the new one better 😁 1w
TheBookHippie @TieDyeDude Me too!!! I helped by donating with the fundraising so she could have a grave and I agree, it‘s better. 1w

As an aspiring author, this quote resonates with me on a daily basis! Writing is the hardest thing I‘ve ever tried...

I‘m going to be spamming images of this book all weekend.

A 1917 Vanity Fair classic by Dorothy Parker, who knew about mansplaining 100 years before there was a word for it.

The epigraph sums it up nicely.

8 years ago I loaned out my copy of this particular edition. I never again saw it and have missed it dearly. I found a nice copy online and it will never leave my home without me.
