The Original Mame
By Gary F. Taylor
Patrick Dennis' famous "Auntie Mame" has so many incarnations that it can be hard to keep track. In the 1950s there was a famous stage version and still more famous film version, both starring the illustrious Rosalind Russell; in the 1960s there was an extremely popular stage musical starring Angela Lansbury and then a critically disasterous screen musical starring Lucille Ball. But this is the first, the original: AUNTIE MAME, one the 1950s' most talked-about books, a true runaway bestseller and one of the great classics of American humor.
The episodic book concerns an orphaned child, Patrick Dennis, who is sent to live with an aunt he has never before seen in 1920s New York--and the aunt is Mame Dennis, a fast-living, intellectually sharp, and decidedly eccentric woman beset by both the fads and fashions of the day and the money and social connections with which to indulge them. Although time has rather blunted the actual way in which Patrick Dennis writes (his framing device of a magazine article is more than a little tiresome), it certainly has not blunted the character herself: madcap Mame runs riot through the roaring twenties, goes through largely self-induced hysteria during the Depression, works for the boys during World War II, and along the way gets involves in art movements, theatrical performances, fox hunts, Southern country society, war orphans, a wealthy husband, an Irish poet, a college lover, and most famously her beloved nephew's unfortunate engagement to the shallow and snobbish Gloria Upson. Each comic disaster is more memorable than the last, and Mame herself lingers in the mind as an inspiration to live life to the fullest no matter the consequences.
Fans of the Rosalind Russell film version will quickly realize that Russell has captured the character perfectly; the book, however, is at once less structured and considerably broader than the Russell playscript and film. Very episodic and considered quite riske for its time, it contains a number of adventures (such as Mame's seduction of one of Patrick's college friends or her introduction of Patrick to the Maddox sisters) that never made it to any performance version. Both fans of the various plays and films and even the completely uninitiated will adore meeting the sparkling original, certainly one of the greatest comic creations in 20th Century literature. AUNTIE MAME deserves a special place on the shelf of any one who enjoys a range of humor that runs from sly giggles to screaming laughter. Strongly recommended.

Now with a formerly suppressed chapter added--what fun!
By L Goodman-Malamuth
Even we Mame maniacs who've howled our way through "Auntie Mame" and its sequel haven't been able to read the entire "Around the World with Auntie Mame"--until now. The new paperback edition includes, "Auntie Mame in Mother Russia," a chapter set in the former Soviet Union, suppressed when the book was first published in 1958.
Of course, reading this sidesplitting chapter with a pair of today's eyes, it's hard to see just how subversive Patrick Dennis was considered to be... But no matter, this chapter sparkles like a fine gem retrieved from a dusty safe-deposit box.
Even if you already own "Around the World," it's worth buying this new paperback edition for this chapter alone. Eric Myers, author of Patrick Dennis' biography "Uncle Mame," and Dr. Michael Tanner, Dennis' droll son and guardian of his literary estate, deserve much credit for bringing Patrick Dennis to the attention of new and old generations of readers.

Delightful sequel to "classic"
By A Customer
What a joyous read! If you haven't read "Auntie Mame" (or have not seen the play, musical, or films) start with that. This will introduce you to the "madcap" Mame and her zanny cohorts. "Around the World" is not so much a sequel, but a series of short stories -- each a chapter in length. Travel with Mame from one exotic place to the next as she gets herself into "trouble" every country she visits. Too bad Jerry Herman and Lawrence & Lee never made this into a musical for the older, but still-so-lovely, Angela Lansbury.
