Reflecting on This Boy's Life, A Memoir. The four best memoirs I have ever read, and I have read too many, are Frank McCort's, Angela's Ashes, “Tobias Wolff's, “This Boy's Life,” Geoffrey Wolff's, “The Duke of Deception,” and Jeanette Walls, “The Glass Castle.”. This Boy's Life, by Tobias Wolff (memoir). One of the first, Tobias Wolff in This Boy's Life (1989) told his bleak story about trying to grow up, raised by a single mom and an absentee dad. In fact, this is exactly the type of story that started the Memoir Revolution. Choose ONE: The Glass Castle, by Jeannette Walls (memoir). So I finally pulled This Boy's Life off the shelf. A memoir that considers growing up in America and looking at adult issues through a child's eyes. [Tobias Wolff] -- Wolff's account of his boyhood and the process of growing up includes paper routes, whiskey, scouting, fistfights, friendship, and betrayal in 1950s America. This unforgettable memoir, by one of our most gifted writers, introduces us to the young Toby Wolff, by turns tough and vulnerable, crafty and bumbling, and ultimately winning. I can't say for sure what it is that draws me so much to Tobias Wolff. This Boy's Life by Tobias Wolff This unforgettable memoir, by one of our most gifted writers, introduces us to the young Toby Wolff, by turns tough and vulnerable, crafty and bumbling, and ultimately winning. I was surprised at how good that novel was because Wolff (if he is known — and more people should read him) is better known for his short stories and this memoir.
