What can I say about David Sedaris? If you think he's hilarious, as I do, you'll enjoy this book. If you don't, well you won't find anything new here to entice you to give him another shot. This book is classic David Sedaris fare: travel writing + childhood nostalgia + self-deprecation, with a few potshots at his parents and partner thrown in for good measure. This probably isn't his funniest book ever, but I laughed, a lot.
Who could possibly narrate a David Sedaris book but the man himself? Now, I am not of the opinion that all authors should narrate the audio versions of their books. I've listened to too many versions of that going terribly wrong. But David Sedaris is in a league of his own. His voice is so unique, so instantly recognizable. I can't imagine listening to anyone else read his books. Very much recommended.
