Groucho Marx's elder daughter saved virtually every letter her father wrote to her between 1938, when she was 11 years old, and 1967, and she presents them in this book with notes and photographs from her own collection. The letters display Groucho's celebrated wit and word play, but also provide glimpses of a man known to the public only through his film roles. The discussions with his daughter cover a wide range of topics, from growing up and career choices to books, films and current events.
