Synopsis
" Thorne Smith] created the modern American ghost. A ghost with style and wit. A ghost that haunts us still." --The New York Times Thorne Smith is a master of urbane wit and sophisticated repartee. Topper, his best-known 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 law-abiding, mild-mannered bank manager, decides to buy a secondhand car, only to find it haunted by the ghosts of its previous owners--the 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 life--and 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., " Thorne Smith created the modern American ghost.

    Pleasure dealing with seller

    Sent on time, brand new, GREAT book. in a world were everything is so high tech, it's important for parents to teach their kids, or just mentor other youngsters about the classics. And there is nothing like holding a book or magazine in your hand, can't go with the new i-books. Will never be without a book (IN MY HAND!) It's one beautiful way of reading and sharing and folding and writing all over it. Just cant get away from it. LOVED reading old classics such as this one.

    Great book!

    I loved the movie with Cary Grant and wanted to see how the book was. The book is very funny by the way! I would definately recommend this and will be buying his other books!
