I know I can get a laugh on almost any line with my eyebrows and my eyes,"" he once said. Having gotten the attention he was deprived of as a boy he borrowed his mother's destructively critical way of expressing herself and used it to lash the world and disabuse people of their illusions. The optimistic, heroic tales of Horatio Alger and the invincible exploits of Frank Merriwell had taught him how language can conceal and idealize. They had taught him the intrinsic power of words. Now he would use language to expose and burst apart. Book jacket. Media >, [PU: Yale University Press]<

A trenchant examination of an iconic American figure that explores the cultural and psychological roots of his comic genius
Born Julius Marx in 1890, the brilliant comic actor who would later be known as Groucho was the most verbal of the famed comedy team, the Marx Brothers, his broad slapstick portrayals elevated by ingenious wordplay and double entendre. In his spirited biography of this beloved American iconoclast, Lee Siegel views the life of Groucho through the lens of his work on stage, screen, and television. The author uncovers the roots of the performer’s outrageous intellectual acuity and hilarious insolence toward convention and authority in Groucho’s early upbringing and Marx family dynamics.
The first critical biography of Groucho Marx to approach his work analytically, this fascinating study draws unique connections between Groucho’s comedy and his life, concentrating primarily on the brothers’ classic films as a means of understanding and appreciating Julius the man.
