J. F Malysiak

His most poignant collection to date, July 7 2004

Less laugh-out-loud funny than his previous efforts, but somehow more satisfying in its examination of family and the ties that bind. Sedaris is an amazing wit and his ability to pare down a situation - none of which are all that significant in and of themselves, but all of which any reader can relate to - into its essential elements for the purposes of commentary and observation, is second to none.

A superb collection from a master.
