Because good writing is the best thing in the world, and good, funny writing is even better than that, I can't imagine why David Sedaris is only coming in at number 313 on my ridiculous blog. Anyway, better late than never.
I suppose it is possible to be a literate, sentient human and not find David Sedaris funny, but if you know anybody like that I'd like their number so I can call them and shout down the phone. Me Talk Pretty One Day is still my favourite of his books, though the Santaland Diaries and whichever book has the story about the bees and the armour shouldn't be missed. And, in fact, his humour is the perfect thing for Christmas. So if you find yourself floundering this Yuletide, grab yourself some Sedaris and prepare to feel better.
