Women's Wicked Wit: From Jane Austen to Roseanne Barr

""Our marriage license turned out to be a learner's permit,"" quips Joan Rivers. And as for Joy Behar: ""Sure I want a man in my house, but not in my life."" In Women's Wicked Wit from Jane Austen to Roseanne Barr, Michelle Lovric (Love Letters: An Anthology of Passion) quotes intellectuals, movie stars, pop singers, artists, comedians, novelists and women of every other stripe on topics ranging from ""The Sex War"" and ""Marriage and Divorce"" to ""Work, Power & Money"" and ""The Arts."" There is something for everyone in these pithy, funny, outrageous, enigmatic, feminist, antifeminist, arrogant, self-mocking quotations. ( May)
