Christmas Books (25) » 8 plus Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre. Santaland Diaries is a classic. Most of the rest is just meh. Dark. Doesn't really fit the theme suggested by the title. I definitely prefer Sedaris' non-fiction to fiction. ( ![]() I liked the first story the best, and after that, I was kind of ambivalent to the rest of the book. The humor seemed mean-spirited at times, too. Sedaris was recommended highly to me by a number of people, but it wasn't for me. Interesting collection, though, even if I didn't think it was laugh-out-loud funny. I love David Sedaris' stories. I love them even more when I get to hear him tell them. Caustic humorous vignettes. At times, over-the-top and dated descriptions of American society. I am a big fan of Sedaris but I was a little dissapointed with this book. I liked the autobio stories, but not so much the other ones.
I love David Sedaris as he is one of my favorite authors but this is not one of his best books. You should still read "Holidays on Ice" because it is funny and will make you smile. Holidays are crazy for everyone, no matter what holidays you celebrate and Sedaris reminds us to laugh at them, especially ourselves. FOR THOSE DREADING THE HOLIDAY SEASON, BESTSELLER SEDARIS (WHEN YOU ARE ENGULFED IN FLAMES) MAKES LIFE A LITTLE EASIER WITH THIS RE-RELEASE OF HIS UPROARIOUS ESSAY COLLECTION, NEWLY EXPANDED FROM THE ORIGINAL 1997 EDITION. Here are six Christmas tales sure to please readers new to humorist, playwright and NPR commentator Sedaris--and likely to disappoint his devotees. Est contenu dansEst en version abrégée dans
A best-selling classic features six additional works on the joys and embarrassments of favorite holidays, in a volume that includes tales of tardy trick-or-treaters, the difficulties of explaining the Easter Bunny to another culture, and a barnyard Secret Santa scheme gone awry.
