Most books about the Marx brothers are either pious attempts to analyze why they were funny or mere illustrated catalogues of Marxiana. This one is, at last and for all time, a book worthy of the Marx Brothers' oeuvre itself:a zany, funny, brilliant, definitive and idiosyncratic account of the lives, the early careers and the final flowering of the Brothers Marx - told in their own words, the recollections of their co-workers, the scripts and dialogue of their movies and, for the most part, in the words of the author, a lifelong Marxist, who takes his subjects seriously but writes about them in a way that is at once startling and funny.
