Essays to feature:

  • David Sedaris's brief and painful encounter with the most popular guy in junior high school.
  • 'The Rooster' in a tux and other unsavoury animal tales from David's brother's wedding.
  • David Sedaris on the differences between love in movies and love in real life.
  • David Sedaris on his brutally frank neighbour, a 75-year-old woman named Rocky who is given to outbursts like, 'I'll kick you up the ass so hard I'll lose my shoe!'

No one renders the pathos, chaos, and impossible variety of daily encounters like David Sedaris. On every subject, he is bruisingly painful and tenderly affectionate. Sedaris is a unique voice in American writing, and this new collection will be eagerly anticipated by his ever-growing crowd of devoted readers.
