En savoir plus sur le livre

The collection features S.J. Perelman's witty reviews of twenty-two forgotten books and silent films, originally published in The New Yorker from 1948 to 1953. With sharp satire, Perelman revisits works like Gertrude Atherton's "Black Oxen" and Sax Rohmer's "The Mystery of Dr. Fu-Manchu," exploring their impact on his youth. His self-reflective humor reveals how revisiting these cultural artifacts mirrors personal growth and change. The paperback also includes a tribute to Perelman's unique style by Adam Gopnik.
