Beschreibung

A riotous collection of memoirs which explores the absurd hilarity of modern life and creates a wickedly incisive portrait of an all-too-familiar world. It takes Sedaris from his humiliating bout with obsessive behaviour in 'A Plague of Tics' to the title story, where he is finally forced to face his naked self in the company of lunatics. At this soulful and moving moment, he brushes cigarette ashes from his pubic hair and wonders what it all means.This remarkable journey into his own life follows a path of self-effacement and a lifelong search for identity leaving himself both under suspicion and over dressed.

Schlecht gealterter Humor

Dieses Buch traf meinen Humor überhaupt nicht. Es hat eine brachiale Komik, die sich vor allem in drastischer Ausdrucksweise und Fäkalsprache erschöpft. So wird das Lesen anstrengend. Mag sein, dass das alles Ende der 90er humorvoll war, ich fand es unerträglich.

It's ok I guess. The first half is quite entertaining (didn't feel the urge to laugh out loud though), the second half feels like Sedaris wants to show the reader some deeper truths and moral being conveyed in a manner far away from subtle. I have already downloaded Calypso before reading this so I'm going to give Sedaris a second chance. Let's see.
