“Sedaris is a
remarkably skilled storyteller and savvy essayist. He weaves together vivid
images and sensations into a coherent whole that packs a serious emotional

“David Sedaris’s familiar voice and delivery make
everything he writes funnier, odder, and more poignant. (And if his voice isn’t
familiar, run—don't walk—to find any of his recordings.) Sedaris knows how to
make the most of the material, perfectly emphasizing every punch line,
gross-out, and auditory double take. A few live recordings, complete with an
appreciative audience, are interspersed with the studio readings.”
