Skin and Bones (Dodo Press)
Author: Thorne Smith
Publisher: Dodo Press
ISBN: 9781406591637
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
James Thorne Smith Jr. (1892-1934), was an American writer of humorous supernaturnal fantasy fiction. Best known today for his creation of Topper, Smith's comic fantasy fiction (most of it involving sex, lots of drinking, and supernatural transformations, and aided by racy illustrations) sold millions of copies in the early 1930s. Smith drank as steadily as his characters; his appearance in James Thurber's The Years With Ross involves an unexplained week-long disappearance. Smith was born in Annapolis, Maryland the son of a Navy commodore, attended Dartmouth College, and after hungry years in Greenwich Village working part-time as an advertising agent, Smith achieved meteoric success with the publication of Topper in 1926. His other works include: The Stray Lamb (1929), Turnabout (1931), The Night Life of the Gods (1931), Topper Takes a Trip (1932), The Bishop's Jaegers (1932), Rain in the Doorway (1933), Skin and Bones (1933) and The Glorious Pool (1934). He died of a heart attack while vacationing in Florida.

The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis
Author: Max Shulman
Publisher: Ishi Press
ISBN: 9784871871907
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
This is a collection of short stories written during the 1940s for college humor magazines and then gathered together to make a book. The author promises the readers that these stories have been published in Good Housekeeping, Cosmopolitan, The Saturday Evening Post, Today's Woman and American Magazine. Thus, these stories are guaranteed to be clean. Eventually, The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis was made into a long running TV series starring Dwayne Hickman and Bob Denver. Bob Denver went on to become the lead character in "Gilligan's Island." The story line is that Dobie Gillis longs for this girl or that girl or for just about any girl, but no matter how hard he tries he can never achieve a "happy ending." This book was first published in 1945 back when couples actually got married before having sex, so sometimes Dobie gets what he wants only by marrying the girl. Meet the Casanova with a crew cut, the irrepressible Dobie Gillis who left a trail of broken women through the ivy-colored halls of the University of Minnesota. Says Dobie: "The reason I wanted to go to college was romantic. To be blunt, I was getting nowhere with the girls back home. All the plumbs were falling to the baseball and hockey teams. All I could get was what nobody else wanted, including me. Since I was a red-blooded man of eighteen summers, the situation was not tolerable.
