The phrase that keeps coming to mind is "Crap that guy is funny!" David Sedaris' part memoir, part short story compilation made me laugh out loud quite a few times. I am especially fond of the first chapter which chronicles his time in speech therapy. It made me think "Do I do that to kids?" I laughed the most at the chapter about his younger brother and how rules changed in his family. Too too much.
The chronicling of his time in France is timely and fun, but the picture he continues to paint of his dysfunctional family is, again, the best of the book.
