Sobre este artículo
Little, Brown and Co, 2006. Hardcover. Fine/fine. Fine in fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 321 pp. Second printing. Thirty years after the movie "Animal House" showed the world the meaning of togas, the author answeras the question, "Was it really that wild?" Chris Miller )a.k.a. "Pinto" takes us back to the world of 1960 Dartmouth to tell the real-life story of Alpha Delta House. It was a world where frat brothers might go to a sorority house for a sympathy date; or slather himself with mustard and crawl around the dance floor looking for women to bite; or pratice for the distance-booting event.
Sinopsis
"Loud, raucous, infantile, racy, and very funny...The book is full of likable eccentrics, sexual shenanigans, and--if you know where to look for them--valuable life lessons."--BooklistAnimal House, the movie, didn't tell the half of it. Writing with a freshness and joy that make Dartmouth 1960 feel like a beer-soaked rock-and-roll heaven on earth, Chris Miller tells the real story of the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity as no one else could. Seal, Doberman, Otter, the legendary Moses (he of the burning bush) - these titans and dozens of others come alive again, terrorizing the administration, taunting cops, surviving their own lunacy, and challenging the squareness of a stifling time. The Real Animal House is the perfect antidote for a conventional age much like today."A breezy, chuckle-worthy read, and a must for the Animal House fan." -Courier-Post"Action-packed. . . . A boozy holler of a book, with a great soundtrack." -Kirkus Reviews"A seriously funny read. . . . The joy and exuberance that Pinto and his pals demonstrate holds a lesson for every generation that needs to learn not to blindly follow the expectations of parents and guidance counselors, but to seek out those blissful bands of merry misfits that appear from time to time." -Review
