THE CLUCK ABROAD

Is this his fourth publisher, or his third? Pretty low Thayer at that. A Cinderella theme, with a bit of perversion to give it the Thayer flavor, in a story of a small town librarian who goes to Europe after having had a somewhat disastrous tumble in love with a hardened pervert. She ditches the personally conducted tour, stows away on a millionaire's yacht, returns to her fairy to try to rescue him, and -- having failed -- goes back to her new acquisition in the shape of the owner of the yacht. Pretty silly.
