I love slightly sleazy ones by Mack Reynolds (who has always intrigued me) and those by Paul W. Fairman, who saved the better ones for his pennames.Richard Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770090814220403413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-6166787341701638782010-08-27T12:43:42.709-05:002010-08-27T12:43:42.709-05:00As I was reading your post, something reminded me ...As I was reading your post, something reminded me of Max Shulman and a novel I read back in the Fifties, RALLY ROUND THE FLAG, BOYS, which is an entertaining farce that takes pot shots at just about everything, too. <br /><br />I probably saw the Newman-Woodward movie based on it, but only have a memory of the novel itself. An image of the rain-soaked sod rolling off the front yard of the house in the suburbs can stay with you for a lifetime - at least it did in my case.Ron Scheerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15357501069513854664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-56910640553605154732010-08-27T08:59:53.107-05:002010-08-27T08:59:53.107-05:00This sounds cute and the cover wink is perfect.

At the outset of your synopsis I was thinking HOW TO MURDER YOUR WIFE or Garner/Doris Day in MOVE OVER DARLING.
