This classic collection of Groucho Marx from 1940s to 1960s gives the descriptions of who he was. We get to know what Groucho wrote in his letters, to himself, his family and friends including some of the century's most famous people like Warner Brothers, poet T.S. Elliot. And also what people wrote in return to him. Groucho shows himself as warm, witty, satirical, sometimes sentimental and often very moody. Groucho adapts his letters to the situation. Therefore a letter written to a friend has a different tone than one written to someone he barely knows. Groucho's letter reveal his personal side, but shows that yet the character he portrayed was not very different than him. A historical collection of wit, sarcasm and genuine tenderness.
