For nearly four decades, David Sedaris has kept a diary in which he records his thoughts and observations on the odd, funny, mundane, and poignant events he witnesses. In this new book he brings us his favourite entries from this incomparable chronicle. Ranging from deeply moving to laugh-out-loud funny, the selections reveal with new intimacy a man longtime readers may only think the know. A rare look into the mind of one of our generation's greatest comic geniuses.
