My Life and Hard Times Paperback - 1999
by James Thurber
This hugely funny autobiographical memoir that takes into account the crumbling of empires, talks "largely about small matters and smally about great affairs". Mostly it is about the wildly incredible things people do when they think they are acting sensibly. Cartoons.
From the rear cover
Widely hailed as one of the finest humorist of the twentieth century, James Thurber looks back at his own life growing up in Columbus, Ohio, with the same humor and sharp wit that defined his famous sketches and writings. In My Life and Hard times, first published in 1933, he recounts the delightful chaos and frustrations of family, boyhood, youth, odd dogs, recalcitrant machinery, and the foibles of human nature.
