David Sedaris

These are scenes of family life at its best, written with clarity but also with great affection, through which the character of the author emerges, watchful, self-mocking and full of understanding. TLS This is a man who could capture your heart and lift your spirits while reading out the ingredients of a rice cake. OBSERVER 'Mr Sedaris's humour is dry, witty and consistently successful.' ECONOMIST 'Sedaris is like an updated Thurber: domestic, laconic, slightly warped but never bitter, and extremely funny.' CULTURE, SUNDAY TIMES 'His best, funniest, most satisfying book.'
