I have always enjoyed David Sedaris in podcasts and appearances but haven't ever read his work. A lot of these stories held the charm and wit that I associated with him but some quickly crossed the line into offensive, bizarre, uncomfortable... Made for a rollercoaster of a reading experience.
The personal essays I enjoyed so much that I'd honestly rate them higher but some of the stories in this collection crossed the line for me. I know this is n old book but he'd do well to update his language.
