Whilst on the enforced sabbatical I read far more David Sedaris than usual


This was a near perfect solution, here he reads an extract from one of his books (I'm on my third )





And what with the ******mas lights going on today also very topical


Lah lah...




W**F




Duh, calm down ...

Hmmm maybe ! but a Quality load of pretentious @#$%& , though after the exhausting experience of reading Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" a tip toe around a David Sedaris is a most delightful mind garden of banality.


"Dress your family in corduroy & denim" is better than MTPOD in MHO



W**F

I love David Sedaris....and was quite a fan of both me talk pretty one day and dress your family....

But I hated Barrel Fever with a passion...it lacked the realism and sincerity of his other work - I just felt it went for cheap dirty laughs (that's the one where he has a fantasy about dating Mike Tyson right?).

yes, the mike tyson one


Dons story still has me chuckling away on the 21st read


If you can get inside the head of a dope smoking layabout who does nothing but watch US TV and read the national enquirer to fill in his long days, then its makes sense. Theres lots of US celeb references that ideally would require a bit of background knowledge to appreciate but may mean nothing to some


innit
