Editorial Reviews
From The New Yorker
This omnibus brings together the artist's signature hounds with previously uncollected material. Thurber disdained "sentimental woofumpoofum," and his unpoetic dogs, with their expressive ears and baffled faces, surprise us with a vision of our sloppy selves.
Copyright © 2005 The New Yorker
From Booklist
Thurber fans and dog lovers everywhere will appreciate this fine collection of the esteemed humorist's canine-related drawings and musings. James Thurber--author, cartoonist, renowned wit, and founding staff member of the New Yorker--contributed articles and cartoons in that magazine from 1927 until his death in 1961. This delightful compilation of his work (on the subject of dogs) includes pieces from the classic and hugely popular Thurber's Dogs (1955), which is now out of print, along with some previously unpublished materials and a large selection of "Talk of the Town" miniatures from the New Yorker. The collection is edited by Rosen, literary director of the Thurber House, a literary center in Columbus, Ohio, and author of such books as Speak (1993), Dog People (1995), and The Company of Dogs (1996). Thurberphiles, of which there are many, will clamor for copies. Kathleen Hughes
