Thirty years ago, The Beaver Papers chronicled the efforts of the
world's literary community to save the iconic sitcom Leave It to
Beaver from cancellation. Along with a behind-the scenes look at
what went on at the studio during that enchanted summer, the book
contained such scripts as Tennessee Williams's Beaver on a Hot Tin
Roof, Yukio Mishima's The Sound of Beaver, Jack Webb's Red Beaver,
and Ernest Hemingway's A Clean, Well-Lighted Beaver, as well as
such classic homages as Herman Hesse'sBeaverwolf and Dostoevsky's
The Brothers Cleaver...twenty-five scripts that destroyed once and
for all the shadowy border between high art and popular culture.
Now, for this 30th Anniversary Edition, we present the entire
original edition, along with a new introduction from the authors, a
foreword by Lionel Endenberry (The Max Kleinman Reader), and a
sneak preview of two scriptsfrom the long-awaited sequel, The
Beaver Papers 2, coming soon from Atomic Drop Press.
