Valley Of The Dolls: Jacqueline Susann (VMC Designer Collection) - Tapa dura

The kind of book most of its readers could not put down. I, for one, could not . . . For me reading Valley of the Dolls was like reading a very, very long, absolutely delicious gossip column . . . Magnetic (Nora Ephron)

Valley Of The Dolls remains a brave, bold, angry and, yes, definitely a feminist book. All that, and still about the most fun you can have without a prescription (Julie Burchill Guardian)

Jackie, it seemed, understood by instinct that her readers were ready for the raw side of love . . . for a franker sexuality and a tougher kind of story-for romance with tears and oral sex (Michael Korda The New Yorker)

Valley of the Dolls remains a pop-culture touchstone: a gleefully salacious story of friendship, sex, backstabbing and pills . . .

50 years later, it's still spot on. The world's changed immensely but the climb to the top is still a tough one (Michael Kors)

Much imitated, but never bettered (Daily Telegraph)

About the most fun you can have without a prescription! (Julie Burchill)

Decades ahead of its time...Mesmerizing...The equation of emotional dependencies with drug addiction in one comprehensive personality disorder is, if anything, MORE CHIC TODAY. (VILLAGE VOICE)

Jackie, it seemed, understood by instinct that her readers were ready for the RAW SIDE OF LOVE...for a franker sexuality and a tougher kind of story - for romance with tears AND oral sex. (Michael Korda, THE NEW YORKER)
