Non-Fiction Memoir
If you ran into Stephen Tobolowsky on the street, you would
not be mistaken: Yes, you’ve seen him before. A childhood
dentist? A former geometry teacher? Your local florist?
Tobolowsky is a character actor, one of the most prolific
screen and stage presences of our time, having appeared in
productions that range from Deadwood to Glee, from
Mississippi Burning to Groundhog Day. But Stephen Tobolowsky, it turns out, is not just an actor;
he is also a dazzlingly talented storyteller and writer. He
has earned a devoted base of fans for his original stories,
told in front of live audiences as well as in a popular
podcast. Now, for the first time, he has assembled those
stories here. The result is creative mitzvah, a work of art,
and a narrative feat that combines biography and essay,
ranging in tone from the hilarious to the introspective. To read these pages is to enter an astonishing world that,
like all art, is universal yet individual, familiar yet
disquieting. A dangerous world, indeed.
