Publisher's Summary
Critic Reviews
"In his latest collection, Sedaris has found his heart. This is not to suggest that the author of Me Talk Pretty One Day and other best-selling books has lost his edge. The 27 essays here include his best and funniest writing yet....What emerges is the deepest kind of humor, the human comedy." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Sedaris is a careful writer, with a no-muss, no-fuss style that rarely misfires." ( The New York Times Book Review)
"Sedaris' piquant essays are as meticulously honed and precisely timed as the best stand-up comic routines, which is, of course, what they are....Sedaris, openly gay, nervy as a tightrope walker, sharply hilarious, teasingly misanthropic yet genuinely compassionate, has a unique ability to supply exactly the right details to bring every funny, awkward, ludicrous, painful, horrible real-life moment into harrowingly crisp focus....He is mesmerizing." ( Booklist)
"Sedaris has a satirical brazenness that holds up next to Mark Twain and Nathanael West." ( The New Yorker)

David's impersonation of Paul is laugh out loud funny
At times hilarious at others poignant and poetic, David Sedans has a way with words and great little tales to tell.

I took stars off because of the mouse story
Until the last chapter about the mouse. I loved this book as much as all of David Sedaris' books! Poor mouse.

genius
I love David Sedaris and can listen to his work over and over. The stories are witty, cutting and sympathic to the human condition

Boring and monotonous
Disappointing to say the least. Very monotone delivery of family stories that were seldom funny or interesting. Suitable for those listeners suffering from insomnia.
