About the book

James Thurber's My Life and Hard Times is a comic memoir of childhood, family and small-town life in Columbus, Ohio. Thurber recalls eccentric relatives, household disasters, confused neighbours and improbable incidents with the deadpan exaggeration that became his trademark. Brief, absurd and affectionate, the book turns autobiographical memory into one of the classics of twentieth-century American humour.
