Put the Blame on (Auntie) Mame Until a few weeks ago, I was guilty of a terrible secret: I had never seen the film “Auntie Mame,” and, even worse, I was not even remotely acquainted with the written works of Mame’s creator, Patrick Dennis.
Sophisticated, witty and charming This book sparkles-I can’t believe it was written forty years ago! This HAS to be the funniest book about divorce ever written, from the perspective of a precocious 10 year old boy. This would make an excellent gift for anyone with a sense of humor OR for meddlesome in-laws. Patrick Dennis was a gem of a writer, and his out-of-print books deserve to be resurrected.
