"The great American novel" —Edith Wharton

This new combined edition collects two brilliant satires of the Jazz Age and American sexual mores, featuring Lorelei Lee — the not-so-dumb blonde flapper from Little Rock. Lorelei’s hilarious diaries record her adventures in search of champagne, diamonds, and marriageable millionaires. "The great American novel" - Edith Wharton

"the best philosophical work by an American" - George Santyana
