At the helm of America's most influential literary magazine for more than half a century, Harold Ross introduced the country to a host of exciting talent, including Robert Benchley, Alexander Woolcott, Ogden Nash, Peter Arno, Charles Addams, and Dorothy Parker. But no one could have written about this irascible, eccentric genius more affectionately or more critically than James Thurber -- an American icon in his own right -- whose portrait of Ross captures not only a complex literary giant but a historic friendship and a glorious era as well. "If you get Ross down on paper," warned Wolcott Gibbs to Thurber," nobody will ever believe it." But readers of this unforgettable memoir will find that they do.
Review:
"I am confident that not even the most self-righteous purist could take serious notice of any of the faults. For the faults are those of genius and 'The Years With Ross' is quite simply, if I may use an over-worked phrase, a great book. It should win a Pulitzer Prize for biography; a National Book Award (in fiction, nonfiction, or poetry: it qualifies in all three categories), and anyone with contacts in Stockholm should notify the Swedish academicians that now is the time for all of Thurber's work to be accorded the Nobel Prize it deserves."
