The Thurber Carnival review from Elizabeth North Hoyt
A long, admiring critique of The Thurber Carnival by James Thurber noting his Ohio roots and school days. The piece praises Thurber’s humor, the collection’s stories such as The Catbird Seat and Bateman Comes Home, and the simple yet striking drawings. It endorses reading the book to enjoy Thurber’s universal wit and humane satire.
