A new collection from David Sedaris is cause for jubilation. His recent move to Paris has inspired hilarious pieces, including Me Talk Pretty One Day, about his attempts to learn French. His family is another inspiration. You Cant Kill the Rooster is a portrait of his brother who talks incessant hip-hop slang to his bewildered father. And no one hones a finer fury in response to such modern annoyances as restaurant meals presented in ludicrous towers and cashiers with 6-inch fingernails. Compared by The New Yorker to Twain and Hawthorne, Sedaris has become one of our best-loved authors. Sedaris is an amazing reader whose appearances draw hundreds, and his performancesincluding a jaw-dropping impression of Billie Holiday singing I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weinerare unforgettable. Sedariss essays on living in Paris are some of the funniest hes ever written. At last, someone even meaner than the French! The sort of blithely sophisticated, loopy humour that might have resulted if Dorothy Parker and James Thurber had had a love child. Entertainment Weekly on Barrel Fever Sidesplitting Not one of the essays in this new collection failed to crack me up; frequently I was helpless. The New York Times Book Review on Naked

I did not want it to end. Sedaris is an astute observer of everyone, including himself.

Seriously Good

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely. Its a sophisticated blend of memoir and satire.

What did you like best about this story?

It was my first book by the author. It took me by surprise because at the time I was more a fan of his sister Amys work. I purchased the book because it was on CNNs 100 books to read in your life time and I had the extra credit.

What does David Sedaris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He's wonderful at narration. A real pro. It helps that his profession is in entertainment, but his deliverance and performance is so on point. His impression of Amy on the phone with her father reciting lines from television novellas is something I wouldve missed out had I just read the book.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, absolutely. I do a lot of driving for work and it took me a day and a half to finish the book. I never wanted it to end.

Any additional comments?

Get this book.

I look forward to his other books. And they all have such great ratings.

It had me at hello

i love all his work. what more can one say? to make a minimum of 15 words and 25 characters? you either agree with my tastes or you dont? i guess this is our rights as Americans? stop buy if you want to try and chop off my hands. Nice touch with the hand chopping thing. ill continue on next review for filler.

David is great.
