The Thurber Letters: The Wit, Wisdom and Surprising Life of James Thurber by Harrison Kinney,Rosemary A. Thurber
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.8 MB
Overview: Though he died more than forty years ago, James Thurber remains one of America’s greatest and most enduring humorists, and his books – for both adults and children – remain as popular as ever. In this comprehensive collection of his letters – the majority of which have never before been published – we find unsuspected insights into his life and career.
His prodigious body of work – fables, drawings, comic essays, reportage, short stories, including his famous “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” – all define Thurber’s special and prolific genius. Like most good humorists, he was prone to exaggeration, embellishment, and good-natured self-deprecation. In his letters we find startling revelations about who he really was, and why the prism through which he viewed the world could often be both painfully and delightfully distorting.
