Groucho: The Life and Times of Julius Henry Marx

by StefanKanfer (Author)

Synopsis

Since his death in 1977, no major biography of Groucho Marx, the most influential comedian of his generation, has been written. This book intends to tell the whole story, and reflect the Marxian spirit, an anarchic force that still animates contemporary comedy. Kanfers biography explores the sources of the Marxian wit and include quotes and observations from friends, family and fellow comic artists, as well as hilarious pieces written by the subject himself.
