Barrel Fever and Other Stories

De: David Sedaris

Narrado por: David Sedaris, Amy Sedaris

In David Sedaris's world, no one is safe, and no cow is sacred. With the legendary essayist’s signature biting wit, this collection skewers family dysfunction, awkward childhood memories, and the absurdities of modern life.

A do-it-yourself suburban dad saves money by performing home surgery. A man who is loved too much flees the heavyweight champion of the world. A teenage suicide tries to incite a lynch mob at her funeral. A bitter Santa abuses the elves.

With a perfect eye and a voice infused with as much empathy as humor, Sedaris writes stories and essays that target the soulful ridiculousness of our behavior.

Barrel Fever is like a blind date with modern life, and anything can happen.

“If you’re looking for some comic relief, look no further than David Sedaris.” ―NPR

David Sedalia at his best

As a writer, storyteller and reader, David` Sedaris has done another fine job. These stories are original and engaging—-and fun.

Classic Sedaris..

Fans of Sedaris will love this collection of essays and stories. Sedaris has a wit about him like no other. Very LGBTQIA+ friendly. Highly recommend if you enjoy hilarity & well written stories. This is an early collection from Sedaris. This book is exactly why I fell in love with this author.

Another delight

Listening to David and Amy Sedaris reading was an utter utter delight! I hope he will include more family members in his readings in the future!
