He’s just so cool. His writing style will take you in and you’ll find yourself, alone in your bedroom, at 1 a.m., unable to put your book down, and laughing out loud at his hilarious thoughts about everyday events.

A reviewer from Boston Globe writes, “It’s not just that Sedaris’ crisp prose is humorous. What makes his work a consistent joy to read is his deliciously skewed vision of the world, and his deadpan delivery.”

Buy one of his books and read it this Christmas, or listen to him read stories from his book Holidays on Ice on “A Very Special Sedaris Christmas” from This American Life.
