David Sedaris

With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, David Sedaris has become one of America’s pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that Sedaris is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. David Sedaris is the author of Barrel Fever, Holidays on Ice, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk as well as collections of personal essays, Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls, Calypso and The Best of Me. His diaries were published in two volumes Theft By Finding: Diaries 1977-2002 and A Carnival of Snackery: Diaries 2003-2020. His latest book is Happy-Go-Lucky. He lives in England, and is a contributor to the New Yorker, the BBC and CBS Sunday Morning.
