This one met my requirements for a collection of David Sedaris essays. I laughed out loud (more than once) and I'm feeling more at peace with the idea of getting a colonoscopy someday.

If you're looking for a laugh, you can't ever go wrong with Sedaris. Some of the essays he chose to write in a different persona were not as laugh out loud funny as his autobiographical work, but they were still a pleasant read. As always, my favorite pieces deal with Sedaris's dad or with Sedaris acclimating to a new culture/language. Both are discussed in this book. Many thanks to my friend Emily for gifting this book to me - I needed the laughs :-D
