With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques, David Sedaris has become one of America’s preeminent humor writers, a master of satire, and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today. Sedaris is the author of Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice, collections of personal essays, and his most recent book, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls. His pieces appear regularly in The New Yorker and have twice been included in “The Best American Essays.” He and sister Amy Sedaris have collaborated to write plays that have been produced at La Mama, Lincoln Center, and The Drama Department in New York City. Often heard on public radio’s “This American Life,” Sedaris has been nominated for three Grammy Awards for Best Spoken Word and Best Comedy Album. Recommended for mature audiences, may contain adult themes and language.
