The Visitor, the Great Switcheroo, The Last Act, and Bitch. In these stories you will meet: Uncle Oswald, who likes scorpions and seducing ladies on top of pyramids but who shouldn't have stayed the night with a very new friend he by chance met in the Sinai Desert. Vic, the suburban Jupiter who works out a completely fool proof system for the great switcheroo, and foolishly takes the shape and the place of luscious Samantha's husband, Jerry. Anna, who doesn't realize that you should never, never call up a long-lost beau, especially if he's a doctor and lives in Dallas. And irrepressible Uncle Oswald again, whose chemist friend has invented a totally irrestible perfume. . Hard Back. As New/Very Good. Illus. by Shields, Charles - Cover. 5 "x 7 1/2".
