Groucho Marx's elder daughter saved virtually every letter her father wrote to her between 1938, when she was 11 years old, and 1967, and she presents them in this book with notes and photographs from her own collection. The letters display Groucho's celebrated wit and word play, but also provide glimpses of a man known to the public only through his film roles. The discussions with his daughter cover a wide range of topics, from growing up and career choices to books, films and current events.

The Groucho Letters: Letters from and to Groucho Marx

No personage is too big, no nuance too small, no subject too far out for Grouchoâs spontaneous, hilarious, and ferocious typewriter. He writes to comics, corporations, children, presidents, and even his daughterâs boyfriend. Here is Groucho swapping photos with T. S. Eliot (âI had no idea you were so handsome!â); advising his son on courting a rich dame (âDonât come out bluntly and say, âHow much dough have you got?â That wouldnât be the Marxian wayâ); crisply declining membership in a Hollywood club (âI donât care to belong to any social organization that will accept me as a memberâ); reacting with utmost composure when informed that he has been made into a verb by James Joyce (âThereâs no reason why I shouldnât appear in Finnegans Wake. Iâm certainly as bewildered about life as Joyce wasâ); responding to a scandal sheet (âGentleman: If you continue to publish slanderous pieces about me, I shall feel compelled to cancel my subscriptionâ); describing himself to the Lunts (âI eat like a vulture. Unfortunately the resemblance doesnât end thereâ); and much, much more. That mobile visage, that look of wild amazement, and that weaving cigar are wholly captured, bound but untamed, in The Groucho Letters.

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; his 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 Many Lover ?
