About this Item
As new condition beige boards with copper spine lettering contained in an as new condition price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. "Once upon a time in rural Maine, a big black bear found a briefcase under a tree. Hoping for food, he dragged it into the woods, only to find that all it held was the manuscript of a novel. He couldn't eat it, but he did read it, and decided it wasn't bad. Borrowing some clothes from a local store, and the name Hal Jam from the labels of his favorite foods, he headed to New York to seek his fortune in the literary world. Then he took America by storm." "The Bear Went Over the Mountain is a riotous, magical romp with the buoyant Hal Jam as he leaves the quiet, nurturing world of nature for the glittering, moneyed world of man. With a pitch-perfect comic voice and an eye for social satire to rival Swift or Wolfe.a bear makes good despite his animal instincts.By turns sidesplittingly funny, stingingly ironic, and unexpectedly tender, [the book] captures the zeitgeist of the 1990's dead-on, in a delicious bedtime story for grown-ups.".
