Gathered for the first time: one of America's great humorists revisits the books and movies from his youthoften with some embarrassmentin this complete, 22piece collectionFrom October 1948 to October 1953, The New Yorker published humorist S. J. Perelmans Cloudland Revisited series: 22 reviews of oncepopular books and silent films whose expiration dates had passed. All but forgotten even at the time, they were nonetheless part of Perelmans youth and made an indelible mark on him.In the comic geniuss biting satire they live once again:Gertrude Athertons sensationalist fantasyBlack Oxen Sax Rohmers supervillain blockbusterThe Mystery of Dr. FuManchu the underwater silent film adaptation ofTwenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea Edgar Rice Burroughs 1914 novel Tarzan of the Apes and George Barr McCutcheons 1901 historical fantasy novel Graustarkthe Game of Thrones of its erawhich launched numerous sequels and film adaptationsThe complete series is collected here for the first time. With selfdeprecating humor and frequent embarrassment, Perelman reflects on how rereading and rewatching brings us in contact with how we, like an old book or film, have both changed and remained the same. This paperback includes a tribute to Perelmans art by another beloved New Yorker writer, Adam Gopnik.
