David Sedaris may well be the closest thing the literary world has these days to a rock star?his speaking engagements are now consistently standing-room-only, a far cry from his early days as a housecleaner in New York City. His sardonic wit and incisive social critique have since made him one of America?s pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which Sedaris slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that he is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today.
