Extractions: E-mail story "Sedaris' sardonic wit will already be familiar to listeners to National Public Radio's 'Morning Edition,'" said the American Library Association's Booklist magazine, "but the venom he exposes in these pages proves he is more than a cuddly curmudgeon. Here he lets loose with a devastating comic ire worthy of Dorothy Parker. Demonstrating low tolerance for human foibles, his misanthropic humor is vindictive and nasty. More than once it crosses the line of good taste, but it's also extremely, relentlessly funny. The short stories in this collection dwell on themes of domestic hell and self-delusion as dysfunctional families tear each other apart and losers refuse to see how pathetic they are."

Extractions: Thursday, March 5, 1998 MURDER MAKES SEDARIS DROP-DEAD FUNNY PAUL GRONDAHL Staff Writer The assignment came from Esquire magazine. Hang out in the medical examiner's office in Phoenix. Write something funny about dead people. Get paid good dough. David Sedaris, the elfin-voiced humorist best known for his droll commentaries on National Public Radio's ``Morning Edition,'' figured it was a cake gig. When he couldn't find the funny in untimely demises, though, Sedaris admitted feeling defeated by the task. Until he witnessed the autopsy of a 17-year-old boy who had decapitated himself by means of a self-inflicted shotgun blast. Sedaris described a bedroom strewn with blood and gore. An eyeball lodged under the door. The headless torso wore a T-shirt advertising tequila with the tagline: ``2 Shots I'm Smart. 4 Shots I'm Good-Looking. 6 Shots I'm Bulletproof.'' Sedaris paused a long beat in his narrative. His eyebrows did their furrowed flickerings. A hint of a smile cracked his lips, revealing a gap-toothed grin. His cockeyed left eye went off on its Marty Feldmanesque wander, scanning some unseen plane for the dark absurdities of everyday life.

Extractions: Talking pretty with David Sedaris INTERVIEW BY MICHAEL SIMS Many of us still remember when we first heard the dry, droll voice of David Sedaris on public radio. He was the only person in the early 1990s more amusing than George Bush. Sedaris talked about his hilarious adventures doing such seemingly innocent tasks as cleaning New York apartments or working as a Christmas elf at Macy's. Gradually, collections of his essays appeared: Barrel Fever, Naked, Holidays on Ice. With these books, Sedaris fans could keep him nearby rather than waiting for a broadcast on All Things Considered. Fans will rejoice again, because Sedaris is back with a new laugh-out-loud collection, Me Talk Pretty One Day . The book's title, after one of the essays, records Sedaris's first official stroke of genius choosing to present his own garbled English translations of the garbled French uttered by students in an introductory French class. Sedaris's version is the first time this trick has worked since Mark Twain pulled it off with one hand tied behind his back.

Extractions: David Sedaris made his comic debut recounting his strange-but-true experiences of being a Macy’s elf clad in green tights, reading his "SantaLand Diaries" on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition. Sedaris’ sardonic humor and incisive social critique have since made him one of NPR’s most popular and humorous commentators. At the end of each of his commentaries, David Sedaris was identified as an apartment cleaner in New York City. But Sedaris isn’t just a working Joe "who happens to put out these perfectly constructed pieces of prose," as Morning Edition’s former producer Ira Glass puts it. The great skill with which Sedaris slices through euphemisms and political correctness proves that he is a master of satire. Everywhere he goes David Sedaris delights his audience with his irreverent style and great humor. "On the air, Sedaris’ shrewd, wickedly funny pieces prick up your ears; his tart voice never gets lost in lost in NPR’s Sargasso Sea of sincerity. On the page, Sedaris seems even more accomplished; this slim volume (Barrel Fever) establishes him as one of America’s most prickly, and most delicious, young comic talents."

http://mostlyfiction.com/humor/sedaris.htm

Extractions: Framed Mounted ... All Books Bibliography Book Marks Author Info At first I thought that David Sedaris didn't really belong on this "bookshelf" because it is reserved for humorous fiction , and Sedaris, from what I had understood, doesn't write fiction. He writes autobiographical essays. After reading this collection of stories, I'm not so sure that description is oh so acurate. The majority of the material is about as autobiographical as any fiction is; that is, the ideas are based on the writer's keen observation of human behavior. But most of these "essays" read a lot like short stories. However you want to label them, as we say in New Hampshire, they are wicked funny. This guy can sure write. The stuff in this book will have you breaking into paroxysms of laughter.
