The Most of Nora Ephron
The Most of Nora Ephron | Nora Ephron
12 posts | 7 read | 10 to read
Nora Ephron's brilliantly funny writing paved the way for female wits like Lena Dunham and Tina Fey. Here is a comprehensive anthology of Nora Ephron' writings on journalism, feminism, and being a woman; on the importance of food (including of course her favourite recipes), and on the bittersweet reality of growing old. As well as many personal pieces from the writer who always sounded like your ideal BFF, this collection includes extracts from her bestselling novel Heartburn, written in the wake of her devastating divorce from Carl Bernstein, and from her hilarious screenplay for the movie When Harry Met Sally, as well as the complete text of her recent play Lucky Guy, published here for the first time.

Emma: "Nora is hilarious and very satisfying to read. She wrote everything: screenplays, essays, novels – and she was really good at all of it. I find that extremely inspiring. It's the kind of writer I'd like to be. I found the 'One Direction Test Your Super-Fan Status' book on a stoop in my neighborhood. It's has puzzles, quizzes, crosswords and more in it. I can read your horoscope if you like." #newyork

If you haven't read any of Nora Ephron's essay collections I highly recommend them all.

My #WCW is Nora Ephron. So based on my taste in pop culture, Nora Ephron shouldn't work for me. If someone just gave me a general description of her essay topics, I'd probably say 'oh that's nice' but internally say 'nope!'. I read I Feel Bad About My Neck and I Remember Nothing on a whim and absolutely loved both essay collections. I think it just comes down to enjoying her writing style. I love how her essays switch from wry to heartbreaking.

JanuarieTimewalker13 Loved her!! 8y
Zelma I need to give her another try in print. Listening to her on audio didn't work for me at all, but I know she is supposed to be fantastic. 8y
