Bestselling humorist Sedaris likes to test out new material on twice-a-year reading tours to get the rhythm and phrasing perfected before he puts them down on the page. This live recording of his sold out October 22, 2002, reading at Manhattan's Carnegie Hall finds Sedaris performing debuting new stories, all captured in this audiobook. They include a parrot who mimics an ice maker, lovers quarrelling over a rubber hand, and a Santa Claus who moonlights from his job as bishop of Turkey.©2003 David Sedaris; (P)2003 Time Warner AudioBooks Literature & Fiction Performing Arts Funny Witty Feel-Good

I never fail to feel better and actually laugh out loud, no matter what my mood, after listening to David Sedaris. It's not just his voice - a pleasant monotone with a slightly nasal New York accent. It's not just his delivery - a slightly sarcastic, mocking, yet self deprecating and appreciative look at his merry band of unusual yet loveable family, friends and acquaintances. It is mostly his ability to help us laugh (out loud!) at ourselves, reflecting back to us the realization that we and our own families, friends and acquaintances are just crazy, funny, unusual and loveable. Thank you David!

I love David’s writing but listening to him tell his stories is way better! His delivery is just comedic perfection!

The only cautionary tale I have is if you happen to listed to this while driving...because you WILL laugh at his essays. He is a total riot. I have loved everything I've even read/heard by him.

You WILL laugh out loud
