Well, I'm grateful that I wasn't born into the Sedaris family. The author is pretty much the exact opposite of me in every way. Our interests definitely don't mesh. His extroverted imposition on other people just doing their job seems rude to me. All for a selfish need for a human connection.
The writing is compelling and brave but pointless and useless. The stories flow very well from one to another. TBC

This book is quite different from my usual. Haven't read the author before. First chapter is slow and weird.

You have to listen to him reading his work to fully appreciate his style of irony. I haven’t read his last few books, but I did read one of his essays in the New Yorker sometime in the last year, and he seemed to be turning more bitter and acerbic – sadly turning that way since getting sober? :-/
