Big Blonde is a short story written by Dorothy Parker. It tells the story of a woman named Hazel Morse, who is a tall, attractive, and vivacious blonde. Despite her physical appearance, Hazel struggles with loneliness and a sense of emptiness in her life. She goes through a series of failed relationships and experiences heartbreak and disappointment.
As Hazel grows older, she becomes more disillusioned with life and starts to rely on alcohol to cope with her feelings of despair. She becomes increasingly isolated and disconnected from the world around her. Eventually, Hazel's downward spiral leads to a tragic end.
Through Hazel's story, Parker explores themes of beauty, loneliness, and the emptiness that can come from living a superficial life. The story serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of relying on external validation and the importance of finding true fulfillment and happiness within oneself.
