Thurber Country Lt
About This Book
First published in 1949, Thurber Country remains a benchmark of satirical writing. This edition includes a new introduction by Lillian Ross. There are 26 short pieces. Most (including "File and Forget," a correspondence with his publishers which is not recommended to people who have a tendency to get bad hiccoughs from too much laughing) have already appeared in The New Yorker. Seven pieces have appeared in The Bermudian and have therefore never been published in this country.
