David Sedaris Naked

Welcome to the hilarious, strange, elegiac, outrageous world of David Sedaris! In Naked , Sedaris turns the mania for memoir on its ear, mining the exceedingly rich terrain of his life, his family, and his unique worldview-a sensibility at once take-no-prisoners sharp and deeply charitable. A tart-tongued mother does dead-on imitations of her young son's nervous tics to the great amusement of his teachers; a stint of Kerouackian wandering is undertaken (of course!) with a quadriplegic companion; a family gathers for a wedding in the face of imminent death. Through it all is Sedaris's unmistakably hilarious voice--without doubt one of the freshest in American writing. "If you're looking for some comic relief, look no further than David Sedaris." ―NPR
