To get the most from all of David Sedaris' work, one must listen to him read it out loud. There is just no way to mentally insert the appropriate inflection or tempo when reading.

I highly recommend the audible version of this book. It's like having a good friend with you telling you about their life and experiences, the good bits and the not so good bits. It feels honest.

Maybe because I have a twisted sense of humour, or maybe because I can relate personally to many of his stories, I found most of them to be exceptionally funny. I found myself laughing out loud so often I was not able to listen to it in public, which is definitely the sign of a good book.
