In this collection of essays, David Sedaris transforms the mortifications of everyday life into wildly entertaining art. Sedaris reflects on situations as diverse as trying to make coffee when the water is shut off, leading him to recall an uncomfortable experience buying drugs in North Carolina, or armoring windows with LP covers to protect the house from neurotic songbirds. Culminating with an account of his trip to Tokyo to quit smoking, this collection is a masterpiece of comic writing.
