Description

(Limelight). “It is a riotous story which is relatively mad and as accurate as a Marx brother can make it. Despite only a year and a half of schooling, Harpo, or perhaps his collaborator, is the best author of the Marx Brother. Highly recommended.” Library Journal “A funny, affectionate and unpretentious autobiography done with a sharply professional assist from Rowland Barber.” New York Times Book Review
To Marx Brothers fans who have yet to read this book: Put it off so long as you’ll, because once you are finished, you’ll wish you have to read it again for the first time. Harpo’s life was interesting in itself, but it also regularly intersected with the lives of other fascinating people, most notably his own brothers and drama critic Alexander Woolcott. Marx also was part of the legendary Algonquin Round Table; he’s got plenty to say about that. Wait’ll you hear about what it means to “throw a Gookie.” You can never be able to watch a Marx Brothers movie again without on the lookout for the Gookie!
