Walter Mitty is an ordinary man living an ordinary life. But he has dreams - vivid, extraodinary day-dreams - in which the life he leads is one of excitement and even adventure, in which he - a weary, put-upon middle-aged man - is the hero of his own story. A man can dream, can he? The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is just one of the brilliant humorous and witty stories written by James Thurber and collected here.

У Уолтера очень богатое воображение. В своих фантазиях он заходит очень далеко и возвращается в реальный мир с большой неохотой. Ведь там он командир гидроплана, известный хирург или подсудимый...

Mild-mannered Walter Mitty is a day-dreamer who escapes his anonymous life by disappearing into a world of fantasies filled with heroism, romance and action. This well-known and beloved tale has launched its famous protagonist into the cultural lexicon, warranting his inclusion in English-language dictionaries and countless anthologies. Stiller's imaginative performance as Mitty is the perfect re-introduction to the classic character and a great preface to the upcoming film, for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
