Groucho Marx Libros

Fundidos en uno solo, Groucho y su yo escribieron este libro… indescriptible. Y es que aunque uno y otro sean de naturaleza muy similar, también son, paradójicamente, muy distintos. En tanto que Groucho, insumiso, entrometido, criticón e insolente mujeriego, dinamita la sociedad y siembra el desconcierto, el yo-de-Groucho sólo piensa en enriquecerse y medrar en esa misma sociedad. Pero lo cierto es que los dos gozan por igual del don privilegiado de hacernos morir de risa. Las hilarantes memorias de uno de los cómicos más famosos de todos los tiempos.

Reissued for the thirtieth anniversary of Groucho Marx's death, this collection returns to fans a classic retrospective of the funny man's best letters with the biggest personalities of his day.

This is the controversial, "scandalous", beguiling, and absolutely authentic memoir of the most famous foursome in movie history, recounted by none other than the masterhimself. Here's Groucho , telling it like it was in a serie sof uncensored interviews salted with hair-raising quips and opinions on everthing from family skeletons to Marilyn Monroe's sex life. Film historian Richard J. Anobile's interviews with Groucho, Gummo, and Zeppo, with Susan Marx, Jack Benny, Harry Ruby, Morrie Ryskind, and others who knew and worked with the fabled four along with 300splendid illustrations and memorabilia combine to bring you-for the first time-the one, the only, the real Marx Bros. -copied from back cover

For everyone who still can't get enough of this legendary wit (and excellent writer), here is an extraordinary collection of almost two hundred letters by Groucho Marx. Following a close filial relationship as it unfolds week by week, year by year, these letters move through three decades of from the vagaries of Groucho's career in film, radio, and television, through two divorces and two remarriages, to Miriam's own often tumultuous young adulthood. In his own inimitable fashion, Groucho advises his daughter about her schoolwork, writing, career, growing up, and growing old. He also discusses theater, film, books, and politics with a candor that will surprise and delight even his most knowledgeable fans. Accompanied by photographs from Miriam's personal albums, Love, Groucho reveals a man deeply concerned with his family, a sometimes firm, always loving father who never hesitated to say exactly what he thought.

In Memoirs of a Mangy Lover Groucho turns his manic eyebrows and spirited cigar to the ever-perplexing affairs of the heart while fully addressing the Marxian passion for poker. This wacky, eclectic book includes Groucho's improbable tales of true romance; his irreverent observations on talent, luck, and what this country really needs; the battles with pigeons and hotel detectives; an account of a blind date who knew a comedy when she saw it (even if it was Death of a Salesman); the "reason" for Harpo's silence; Groucho's unnatural history of love, which traces its unruly evolution from amoeba to alimony; his view on polygamy (and how to attain it); the stunning parallels between Groucho and Lawrence of Arabia; and, of course, plenty of blondes, brunettes, and redheads. So why buy a duck, when instead you can own the Memoirs of a Mangy Lover?
