"Adaptation" is the product of Miss May's antic idea to show Gabriel Dell, who reminds me of Danny Kaye at his best, as a contestant in a television game show. It is a contest, played like Parcheesi, in which the contestant advances or is sent back through the seven ages of man. Miss May has written a parody of life with such incisiveness that it becomes like Swift in its barbs. If I've gone overboard, don't bother with the life-preserver. That's where I meant to be. Miss May's picture of man from birth until death, with all its madness, is still familiar and with all its nonsense infinitely wise.
