Summary
From 1954 to 1981, Maeve Brennan wrote forThe New Yorker's "Talk of the Town" department under the pen name "The Long-Winded Lady." Her unforgettable sketchesprose snapshots of life in small restaurants, cheap hotels, and crowded streets of Times Square and the Villagetogether form a timeless, bittersweet tribute to what she called the "most reckless, most ambitious, most confused, most comical, the saddest and coldest and most human of cities." First published in 1969,The Long-Winded Ladyis a celebration of one ofThe New Yorker's finest writers.
