Who doesn't love David Sedaris? He picked these stories and wrote the introduction. There are the classics, such as Flannery O'Connor' REVELATION, along with more contemporary writers, such as Amy Hempel, Tobias Wolff, Lorrie Moore, Akhil Sharma, and Sarah Vowell

Collection of short stories edited by David Sedaris. Not as funny as most of David's work, but the stories are generally quite good.

This is not a book that was authored by David Sedaris. He has a short story in this book of short stories, but that's all.
