[Thorne Smith] created the modern American ghost. A ghost with style and wit. A ghost that haunts us still.'The New York TimesThorne Smith is a master of urbane wit and sophisticated repartee. Topper, his bestknown work, is the hilarious, ribald comedy on which the hit television show and movie (starring Cary Grant) were based.It all begins when Cosmo Topper, a lawabiding, mildmannered bank manager, decides to buy a secondhand car, only to find it haunted by the ghosts of its previous ownersthe reckless, feckless, frivolous couple who met their untimely demise when the car careened into an oak tree. The ghosts, George and Marion Kerby, make it their mission to rescue Topper from the drab 'summer of suburban Sundays' that is his lifeand they commence a series of madcap adventures that leave Topper, and anyone else who crosses their path, in a whirlwind of discomfiture and delight.As enchanting today as it was when first published in 1926, Topper has set the standard in American pop culture for such mischievous apparitions as those seen in The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, Heaven Can Wait, Beetlejuice, and Bewitched.
