From the Thurber Prize–winning author of New Teeth, hailed as “a triumph of sustained humor” (Sarah Lyall, New York Times Book Review), comes a hilarious and powerful collection of short stories chronicling the plight of aging millennials. ​
Super Mario turns forty and is forced to “take-a stock” of his life and how “messed up it’s-a become.”

Goliath struggles to control the media narrative in the lead-up to his death match against David, a small, beloved child.

And a long-discarded participation trophy reminisces about the glorious field day in 1993, when he wound up in the arms of a jubilant, asthmatic Simon Rich.

High-stakes and heartfelt, Glory Days mourns the death of youthful innocence and hails the beginning of something approximating wisdom. Antologías y Cuentos Cortos Cuentos Cortos Literatura y Ficción Selección de editores Sátira Divertido Ingenioso Para sentirse bien Inspirador Sincero

Editorial Review

A welcome bit of silliness and surprising wisdom
Simon Rich was not on my radar until I recently caught an interview he did with Conan O’Brien. I delighted in their conversation, so when I saw Rich had a new book of humorous short stories coming out—narrated by one of my favorite stand-up comics, John Mulaney, no less!—I jumped on it. Rich and Mulaney were frequent collaborators when they both wrote for Saturday Night Live, and those sketch-writing roots are apparent in how much fun Rich has with point of view and character in Glory Days. He takes on the voice of an aging Super Mario in one story, a tooth fairy arguing for unionization in another. But the silly setups are more than funny bits; they’re vehicles for some real poignancy about aging, parenthood, and the slings and arrows of the Digital Age. After listening to this, I’ll be diving into Rich’s other titles for sure. — Phoebe N., Audible Editor

I should not have listened on my 39th birthday. It made me consider my age, existence, and legacy with equal parts delight, terror, and humility. I will be recommending this to all my elder millennial friends until they are annoyed with me.

It’s weird to laugh this hard during therapy

With John Mulaney narrating and Simon Rich writing, these hilarious stories are both smart and imaginative from perspectives you don’t expect. A must buy/listen.

Great Audiobook!

The whole collection was funny, but some of these stories were off the chart hilarious! Super relatable in an amusing yet horrifying way

Genuinely funny!

If this author hasn't been a regular on This American Life then they're both missing out. Neurotic, sentimental (but only in very hip self-aware ways), and more than a little time spent in existential crisis mode. These essays are read to perfection by Mulaney.

The first story cracked me up; so, I was looking forward to the rest of the book. Unfortunately, I did not find the remainder of the stories nearly as entertaining. Some were better than others; but overall, just so-so.

Mildly Entertaining

While these wild stories would be great enough in printed form, the readings by comedian John Mulaney make the audio format even better. His impersonation of Super Mario tackling middle age is absolutely hilarious.

Brilliant stories made even better by John Mulaney's narration
