When it was first published in the 1960s, Time magazine branded it "the dirty book of the month." Susann was accused of "typing on a cash register," and Truman Capote called her "a truck driver in drag." She threw a drink at Johnny Carson, a punch at a critic and a chair at a wrestler, before jumping into the ring. Valley of the Dolls is a zipper-ripper that has been called trashy, tawdry, glitzy, lusty, sordid and seamy - and that's just the beginning of its appeal. I don't suppose it's much of a rationale to say it's only soft porn. The English professor stared at the book's hot-pink cover, making me feel like it was pornography.

After the women greet and inspect one another, Lysistrata asks them what they’d be willing to do to bring about an end to the Peloponnesian War: we’d be willing to die, they say. The other women arrive soon enough, including the Athenian Myrrhine, the brawny Spartan woman Lampito, and the Peloponnesian women Ismenia and the Corinthian girl. Lysistrata’s neighbor Kleonike enters and tries to calm her, but Lysistrata denigrates the women of Greece as weak and lazy, and she announces that she has on her mind nothing less than a plot to end the Peloponnesian War between Athens and the Peloponnesian League (led by Sparta). Lysistrata begins with the Athenian woman Lysistrata pacing the streets of Athens, waiting for the Greek women she has summoned to arrive. ![]() |
