(Applause Books). Bill Marx is the last living person to have
worked professionally with the three Marx Brothers, his uncles
Chico and Groucho and his father, Harpo Marx. Because Chico and
Groucho had siblings that had written about them, Bill Marx wanted
to complete the Marx Brothers' literary trifecta by authoring a
book about the personal and professional relationships that he had
with his father. Son of Harpo Speaks , in addition to offering a
unique perspective of a very special man and revealing many stories
never before in print, is also a book about a
"too-Hollywood-to-believe" life-altering quirk of fate that
ultimately brought him together with his parents. The background
for this remarkable revelation unfolded unassumingly over a glass
of wine and some conversation in the famous 1960s nightclub, Dino's
Lodge, on Hollywood's Sunset Strip. It would subsequently lead the
author to explore the complex life task of dealing with his
emotional scars of rejection and the secure feelings of acceptance,
the latter due to his overwhelmingly good fortune of having been
adopted by two loving parents. Plenty of "show-biz" and "sizzle"
are also sprinkled throughout to make for a very enjoyable read.
