Little Me

<b>Back in print at last! From the author of <i>Auntie Mame</i> the bawdy bestselling bountifully illustrated autobiography of an imaginary diva whose life is one hilarious mishap after another.</b> <p/>For Belle Poitrine née Mayble Schlumpfert all the world's a stage and she's the most important player on it. At once coy and coercive with a name that means beautiful bosom in French she claws her way from Striver's Row to the silver screen. Recalling Belle's career which ranged from portraying Anne Boleyn in <i>Oh Henry</i> to roles in both <i>Sodom</i> and its sequel <i>Gomorrah</i> (not to mention the classic <i>Papaya Paradise</i>) <i> Little Me</i> serves up copious quanitites of husbands couture and Pink Lady cocktails with international adventures and a murder trial to boot. <p/>A runaway bestseller that made its way to Broadway starring Sid Caesar in 1962 and Martin Short in 1998 <i>Little Me</i> is now reprinted--with all of the 150 historic hysterical photographs depicting the funniest scenes from Belle's sordid life including cameo appearances by the author and Rosalind Russell. Considered a collector's item the first edition of<i> Little Me</i> was like a performance in book form. Now this glittering spoof of celebrity is gloriously reincarnated for connoisseurs of all things chick and cheeky.
