David Sedaris Diaries: A Visual Compendium by Jeffrey Jenkins, David Sedaris

Only show reviews with written explanations

I found this book on ebay. I'd never heard of it but having read David's books 10's of times each I said sure. It's not like his usual but it's not bad either . I'm not a fan of this art usually but I like the rawness and having read his theft by diaries I could try and picture his head space.
I did not pay 50 bucks but whittled the seller down to 3.00 plus shipping of 4.95.

While this was cool and very interactive, I'm very grateful that I just checked it out from the library, because there's no way on God's green Earth that this book is worth $50.

I'm one of Sedaris' biggest fans and I appreciate all the time it takes him to make this diaries. I also appreciate how visual they are, but I just feel mehh about this whole book.

(3.5) A really immersive and interesting look the decades of diaries Sedaris has kept with some funny snippets of entries. I love that this book exists and if I absolutely idolized Sedaris, it would be one I'd want to own!
