Overview
There's something akin to James Thurber about this
affectionate account of growing up with a father who was also an inventor, a
renter of tuxedos, a landlord, a religious man and the writer of extraordinary
letters...There's such acute observation in Shelly Reuben's writing that there
is never any danger of sentimentality. It's a funny, uplifting, honest book
that I shall read and re-read as often as I re-read those stories of Thurber
and his family. Peter Lovesey, Awarded Diamond Dagger Lifetime
Achievement Award by the Crime Writers Association
