    Story

    Title says it all. Got about a third of the way through it and gave it up. I don't often do that, even if it is bad I want to make it to the end, but as I knew how it ended... well, didn't feel bad starting something else.

    Twelve American tourists join an art expedition that begins in the Himalayan foothills of China - dubbed the true Shangri-La - and heads south into the jungles of Burma. But after the mysterious death of their tour leader, the carefully laid plans fall apart, and disharmony breaks out among the pleasure-seekers.

    Once again, David Sedaris brings together a collection of essays so uproariously funny and profoundly moving that his legions of fans will fall for him all over again. He tests the limits of love when Hugh lances a boil from his backside, and pushes the boundaries of laziness when, finding the water shut off in his house in Normandy, he looks to the water in a vase of fresh cut flowers to fill the coffee machine.

    Rarely do I actually laugh out loud while reading or listening to a book. This guy made me laugh. He is brilliant.
