Around the World with Auntie Mame by Patrick Dennis

Image
Outrageously Hilarious Tour de Force.    I loved Auntie Mame and Patrick’s hilarious and outrageous romp around the world in the late 1930s.  The over-the-top escapades, the witty writing, the author’s knack for capturing accents had me laughing the whole way.  The farcical situations they got themselves into were a hoot: like their time in an old run-down 14 th century Austrian village and their unbeknownst association with Nazis or their escape from armed fascists in Vienna.  This book was just pure amusing escapism, and as fun as the first book,  Auntie Mame!  Happy Reading, Happy Travels!
