Review

"The books is pitched at boomers, but readers of all ages will find evocative, Proustian nuggets."

Publisher's note

The best-selling author of A Walk in the Woods and I'm a Stranger Here Myself describes his all-American childhood growing up as a member of the baby boom generation in the heart of Iowa, detailing his rich fantasy life as a superhero known as the Thunderbolt Kid and his his remarkably normal 1950s family life. (BIography & Autobiography)

Annotation

With unmitigated exuberance and wry nostalgia, Bill Bryson plumbs the depths of his childhood in Des Moines for great comic effect. Whether holding forth on the Cold War, the DICK AND JANE books, or his imagined alter-ego as The Thunderbolt Kid, Bryson's prose is full of cheerful witty insight.
