This is the history of a pioneer of pleasure who both has his cake and eats it without dire results, except to the cake. And other bizarre, pulchritudinous and super-realistic matters.
    Maynard Ricefield, big-city culture cat, pursues two girls who are friends and carries off their hearts. Meanwhile, on the declining uppereaside of New York, Irving Melman is not running his hosiery store as usual but is allowing Izzie, a man with one purpose only, to talk on the phone about horses who run to make money in various places in the country. For letting Izzie use the phone this way Irving gets more than rent money, but he is nevertheless unhappy.
    Maynard Ricefield is exceedingly happy, though just a trifle guilty, because the two willingly pursued maidens love him so much and may even be thinking of Marriage. Also neither one knows that her own Gold Love is also her friend's. Ricefield discusses this with his old buddy from the country Alex Claypole, who says it never pays to worry. Alex is a free spirit who tells true stories about life in America.
    One of the maidens, the more delicate one, confesses her love to her bosomy pal and asks for advice, which makes for plenty of turmoil. There is also turmoil at the hosiery store, both in Irving Melman's mind and with some friends of Izzie-the-bookie. What happens in both cases is food for the thoughtful. This is a book that you should read from the front.
