Because of its 75th wedding anniversary and Frank Sinatra's centennial: the Jazz Get older masterpiece that inspired the iconic Sinatra film and the hit Broadway musical. Around the seedy aspect of Chicago nightlife in the 1930s, Joey Evans is a poor man's Bing Crosby - a big-talking small-time nightclub crooner down on his good fortune but always on the make. In slangy, error-littered words agreed upon "Pal Joey", he recounts his exploits with brash nightclub professionals, shady business companions, and every attractive young lady ("mouse") he satisfies. Charismatic yet conniving, Pal Joey is a clean operator whose bravado and big ideas disguise a much less self-assured soul caught up in the rags-to-riches dream of the Jazz Get older. Originally serialized in The New Yorker and the motivation for the 1940 Rodgers and Hart musical of the same name and the 1957 film starring Frank Sinatra, Kim Novak, and Rita Hayworth, Pal Joey is the story of a true "heel", as intricate and memorable as any antihero in American literature.
