"An authentic American genius. . . . Mr. Thurber belongs in the great lines of American humorists that includes Mark Twain and Ring Lardner." —Philadelphia Inquirer
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.
