Book excerpt: James Thurber has been called "one of our great American institutions' (Stanley Walker), "a magnificent satirist (Boston Transcript), and "a Joyce in false-face" (New York Times). The New York Herald Tribune submits that he is "as blithe as Benchley...as savage as Swift...surprisingly wise and witty," while the Times of London, out of enthusiasm and a profound regard for truth, proclaims that "Thurber is Thurber." In Fables for Our Time, Thurber the Moralist is in the ascendancy. Here are a score or more lessons-in-prose dedicated to conventional sinners and proving--what you will. The fables are imperishably illustrated, and are supplemented by Mr. Thurber's own pictorial interpretations of famous poems in a wonderful and joyous assemblage.

Download or read book The Lesson written by Carol Lynn Pearson and published by Gibbs Smith. This book was released on 2001-01-26 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A simple, inspiring story about solving problems from the bestselling author of A Stranger For Christmas. Robert is delighted when he successfully solves his first math problem at school—one plus one equals two. He thinks his work is done—but he’s about to learn that there are plenty more problems to solve… This inspiring, national bestselling fable brings us back to the world of homework assignments, classroom desks, and cafeteria food to remind us that grownups face problems every day and show how to solve them. You may no longer have to puzzle over what happens when two trains are approaching Cleveland, with one leaving at 1:00 P.M. and traveling at 50 mph…but perhaps you’re struggling with waking up fourteen days in a row wondering if it’s worth it to get out of bed, or why you feel like you’re giving 100% to a relationship and getting only 30% in return. Beautifully illustrated and told in the straightforward tradition of a classic fable, The Lesson is an uplifting tale that can help you rediscover the joy of finally finding the right answer.

Download or read book Collected Fables written by James Thurber and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "James Thurber was a comedic genius. His fables are not simply parodies of Aesop. They are wry, accurate, and powerful reflections of ourselves, our foibles, our follies, and, above all, our self-importance. And they are very, very funny." --Neil Gaiman James Thurber has been called “one of the world’s greatest humorists” by Alistair Cooke (TheAtlantic), and “one of our great American institutions” (Stanley Walker)—and few works reveal Thurber’s genius as powerfully as his fables. Perennially entertaining and astutely satirical, Thurber pinpricks the idiosyncrasies of life with verbal frivolity, hilarious insights, political shrewdness, and, of course, quirky, quotable morals. Now, readers can savor 85 fables by the twentieth century’s preeminent humorist collected for the first time in a single anthology. Here, Fables for Our Time, Further Fables for Our Time, and ten previously uncollected fables—illustrated by ten contemporary artists including Seymour Chwast, Mark Ulriksen, Laurie Rosenwald, and R. O. Blechman—are presented in Collected Fables, a must-have for readers of all ages.
