We've been asked to read a book the year we were born. fiction/short stories (with the occasional "autobiographical essay"). These are good stories but I find myself unable to follow the multiple characters very easily. I have to keep re-reading the pages, which takes the fun out of it. Still, I enjoyed revisiting "Walter Mitty" (since the Ben Stiller version comes out this Christmas). nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

James Thurber's unique ability to convey the vagaries of life in a funny, witty, and often satirical way earned him accolades as one of the finest humorists of the twentieth century. A bestseller upon its initial publication in 1945, The Thurber Carnival captures the depth of his talent and the breadth of his wit. The stories compiled here, almost all of which first appeared in The New Yorker, are from his uproarious and candid collection My World and Welcome to It, including the American classic "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" as well as from The Owl in the Attic, The Seal in the Bathroom, Men, Women and Dogs. Thurber's take on life, society, and human nature is timeless and will continue to delight readers even as they recognize a bit of themselves in his brilliant sketches.
